Native reviews and discussion

I love Native because it actually works without being an antiperspirant and it's aluminum free. It also has great scents! I love a brand that offers woodsy smells, as opposed to overly sweet/flowery ones. I'm not trying to smell like an Avon lady. Also, I know that Native has begun offering some of its scents in plastic-free containers. I hope they continue to expand this option in all of the different scents, as I'm trying to stay as sustainable as possible.

I use the body wash and the deodorant. I am obsessed with the deodorant and have probably gone through four sticks. I use the one in paper packaging and they recently changed the design to make it even better. It is the only natural deodorant that doesn't make me smell horrid. The body wash makes me feel clean and smells nice. I did use the shampoo for a while but it made my hair look greasy, I think due to the reason it did not wash out as well as others. It smelled great though.

I truly love Native’s mission! Also, the packaging is so cute. I’ve tried so many different scents and my fav by far is Eucalyptus! I find this scent works the best to really cover the odor smell.

I used the deodorant. I really like the orange musky flavor, smells so good. But after a month I started smelling again, which is a bummer but might be a me problem bc this happens to all the natural deodorants I use

Great product and customer service, fast shipping and a great alternative to traditional deodorant brands.

Ummm the deodorant smells good (I like the variety of unique scents) at first but it also doesn't really work... Like at all. Also leaves a white residue that is just not appealing to me. But everyone has their personal preferences with deodorant so I guess worth a try if you're looking for natural?

Does not work! I tried them several times and but it never works - I'm not sure who this is working for?

After learning about the harmful ingredients in our everyday deodorants and the ones that I had been using for years, I was on the hunt for a natural deodorant that not only smelled good and worked well, but was also good for my body. I heard about Native and decided to give it a try. I thought that the smell of it was good, but after putting it on, I thought that it was too rough and scratchy on my skin, leaving me with a bit of a rash underneath my armpits. I had to stop using it unfortunately, but I did decide to try out the shower gels and give them a chance to which I was pleasantly surprised and happy with my purchase. The smell was great and I will continue to purchase the shower gels.

I switched up from other deodorants to see if this would keep me dry and fresh. Two weeks in and it is working good so far. Also the mint one smells great

Love the scents, but fades throughout the day. Have to reapply in order to not stink.

I tried Native after hearing so many raving reviews about it. I love the scents that they offer and the fact that it's all natural and cruelty-free. Unfortunately it doesn't hold up against summer heat and high temps, but for colder months it does the trick. It also tends to leave a white cast on dark clothing, and like many other stick deodorants, the product looks kind of gross and hard to use once you get to the bottom of it.

The smell of their products are great and I do enjoy their body wash although I think it is priced a little high. Their deodorant just doesn’t work well and I’ve never felt confident wearing it to workout or if I am going to be gone all day and can’t reapply.

Good, clean deodorants.

I love the range of scents for Native. Good smelling without being so overpowering. However, the deodorant is hard to apply when it’s hot outside- it becomes very thick and hard to apply a thin layer.

Great packaging but didn't really work for me sadly. I feel like if anything it created body odor.

Smells great, doesn’t work well with body odors.

I live their body wash but find that the deodorant doesn’t work super well.

The deodorant didn't work for me, personally. But I appreciate the ingredient list. I have actually switched over to using glycolic acid as a deodorant (started with The Ordinary just because I had it on hand) and that has worked the best for me!

Great range of scents and actually works well for a natural deodorant, as someone who used to rely on heavy chemical deodorants.

I bought and used two full Native deodorants last year and while I had no problems with the effectiveness of the product in terms of body odor and sweat, my armpits were increasingly getting darker and darker! I decided to buy it again just to see if it was an issue with the first stick, but, I could tell it was just the way this deo is formulated. I decided to Google around and see if other POCs were having the same problem and I saw other people of color also saying it stained their pits and left dark marks. I will not use this is deo again.
