Native earns praise in reviews for clean ingredients, refined scents (Coconut & Vanilla, Eucalyptus & Mint, Lilac & White Tea) and comfortable, non-irritating wear for many, but effectiveness is inconsistent: several reviewers report odor breakthrough, frequent reapplication, staining, and texture issues. Reviews note body wash and haircare smell fresh and lather well, while deodorant can underperform in heat or workouts and sometimes causes rashes or gritty residue.

the native deodorant in jasmine is my fave! so fresh and clean
I've tried a lot of natural deodorants and this is one of the better ones. It goes on smoothly with no residue and has a light scent to it. I'm not one to sweat or stink much but when I do this does a good enough job that I feel like I smell good all day long. It's a good natural deodorant.

Smells so good
Best smelling and safe deodorant. Bought for my 12 year old. Smells great and is safe to use. Lasts a long time and is not irritating.
Love natives scents and that they have a line for sensitive skin, which I appreciate.

Hey fellow curly-haired friends, I wanted to share something. I recently tried Native shampoo and conditioner, and I’ve been quite impressed. What caught my attention about Native is their commitment to cleaner ingredients – no silicones or sulfates. And for someone like me, with thin, curly hair, it’s been quite beneficial. My curls feel lighter, less weighed down. And a little side note about the packaging: it’s quite sleek and minimalistic. It gives my bathroom a bit of a polished feel, which is a nice bonus. In all, I’ve been happy with the switch. My hair feels healthier, and those curly tresses seem to have a bit more bounce. If you’re curious about trying something new for your hair, it might be worth giving Native a shot.

This product smells great. However, if I sweat even a little bit it made me smell bad. This deodorant did not work for me.
I enjoyed some of the scents but left residue on clothing. Didn’t help with sweat.
The deodorant irritated my armpits.
Wanted to love these more but they just weren’t the best for my body. The only scent that seems to do its job for me is coconut vanilla. I have a mini in my purse at all times for when I need to reapply and it’s been a life saver!
Native was one of those brands that I really wanted to like. I love the packaging and the scents they offer for both their deodorants and shampoos. However, the products simply don't work. Deodorant: I tried the Charcoal scent and I liked how it smelled. The texture was much thicker than what I'm used to, but not unbearable. The issue is that it simply does not control your bo. I live in Florida and sweating is a given, even if you spend the whole day indoors. This deodorant doesn't even masks odor, it simply doesn't do anything other than stain your clothes. Shampoo: I tried the Eucalyptus and Mint 2 in 1 shampoo and it dried out my hair like crazy!!! It smelled really good and my scalp felt nice, but my hair looked terrible. I have curly hair, which is already prone to being dry, so this did me no favors. Maybe it works best if you have straight hair, but if you have curls, I would stay away from this.

The. Deodorant. Does. Not. Work. At. All. You may as well just put vaseline on your underarms. It'll deliver the same level of deodorizing - that is to say, not at all. I've used other natural deodorants before that have worked for an hour or two before letting up- but Native's is different. It literally just doesn't work at all. Cool packaging and mission though! Hence the 2 stars.
Love the natural products or at least the thought behind it. Seems to be of good quality but I prefer degree clinical strength or degree motion.
I have extremely sensitive pits and their sensitive line still managed to give me a rash unfortunately. I found the formula to be really dry yet oily at the same time? I like that they offer a large amount of interesting scents and I'm sure they transfer well to their other body products, but this one isn't for me.
I love Native scents. I've now tried both the bodywash and deodorant. I personally had a bad experience with the deodorant, but that has more to do with my own personal allergies than the brand. That said, if you are sensitive to natural deodorants, Native probably won't be for you. Regardless, the scents are amazing and the bodywash is great! I wish I could use them more.
I love this deodorant. It’s one of the only natural deodorants that work well. I doesn’t stop me from sweating but my sweat doesn’t smell. The scents are great. I’ve tried eucalyptus, lilac, and orange coconut. My only criticism is if I’m very active, such as hiking for a long ways, it does wear off. It’s best as a day to day deodorant.
Native is at the top of the list of products for cleansing & healthy skin. I also respect the fact that they don't have tons of additives like most other companies.
keeps my man smellin freeesh. $11 a bar is crazy tho kick me some manufacturer's coupons pls
I really wanted to love Native. I love their message in trying to keep everyday hygiene products from being cruelty free to fun and environmentally conscious. Their scent combos are more unique than the standard giant brands. For me though, the deodorants have either given me a rash or melts completely off me before it can really work. I tried their shampoo but it was one of the few that left my fine hair dry and stringy. I'm glad it works for others, I wish I could be one of them.
I love Native as a brand, but my love varies depending on the product. I’ve never had good luck with their deodorant, despite how cool their cardboard packaging is. Their bodycare products all smell amazing.
