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.

I really liked this stuff! The scents were really nice, especially the coconut vanilla. My only complaint is that I felt like the sticks just didn’t last all that long.
Feedback
Longevity of the product.
This did not work for me...I am an active person and this is not strong enough for me which sucks because I want to love natural deodorant so much!
I love the goal of the product, but I could not use it without feeling like I was smelly. I felt like it activated my sweat glands. Unfortunately, I stopped us because I could not trust that it would be effective in eliminating odor.
Feedback
Effectiveness in covering/preventing odor.
Really like most of the products I've tried from native! The scent options are always great - especially the more gender neutral ones.
Feedback
Unfortunately, the deodorant stains my white clothes pretty significantly in the arm pit area which isn't fun. Its not the end of the world but on white shirts that I wear often, it is pretty noticeable.

I wanted to love this. In fact, I did love it. It was great for a short amount of time but definitely didn’t hold up for more than an hour or two. Great variety of scents, cute and clean branding but ultimately the product did not hold up.

The packaging and branding is fantastic but I was left wanting for the products. The bar soap doesn’t last particularly long and the body wash doesn’t leave the aroma on long at all.

More longer lasting products
Scents are really nice but I found the deodorant stopped working pretty quickly, even after doing an armpit detox.

I’ve only tried their deodorant but it actually works and keeps me feeling fresh through most of the day. I’m a moderate sweater and find on particularly hot or active days I do find I need to reapply but I would need to do that with a regular deodorant as well. They have a lot of great scents which I don’t find overwhelming and their limited edition scents are always fun. Bonus points for having plastic free and sensitive skin options.
It doesn't prevent smell, but if you smell, it takes away the smell.
Feedback
Would be great if this was proactive against preventing smells.
I love Native products, as someone with very sensitive skin it’s rare I am able to use products that are scented. I am able to use all Native products without having any reaction.
I've been using Native deodorant for years now and I love it. Keeps me from getting stinky and the scents are lovely and natural.
Feedback
Would love to see the Aloe and Green Tea scent in more than just the Sensitive deodorant.

Love the packaging and the scents! They have such a wide array of products, it’s hard for them to miss.
Feedback
I love the scents of their deodorants, however I think the formula could use some work. I know it’s very hard to get all-natural deodorants to be long-lasting and antiperspirant, but those are traits that I personally need to continue using these products.

I wanted to super love this product and while the smells are fantastic, I found that it wasn’t the most effective deodorant out there. I sweat a ton and this deodorant wasn’t a match for me. I do love the fact that they have teeny travel sizes!

Longer lasting scent protection

Probably my first non-aluminum deodorant that I’ve tried. I do understand there’s a detoxing/purging period where your body needs to adjust with these clean deodorants so I kept an open mind. I used this consistently for about 6 months. I tried their bestseller, Coconut and Vanilla. Smell was light and sweet, not overpowering. I’m used to fresh smells so this took a couple days to adjust to. Note that it’s not an anti-perspirant either! So you’ll still sweat with this applied. After the purging period, it still wasn’t as strong with masking the smell of sweat. It also left a stain on a couple of my shirts. I wanted to like it but it never became my go-to deodorant and I never repurchased.
Feedback
Pricey but it did last awhile. Also if it doesn’t stain shirts, that would be great.
Super cute packaging! They come in regular size and have travel sized options as well that are the perfect size for on the go! The smell is great as well. It does help with the smell, but not so much with sweat. Overall, decent, but can be pricey ~$12 for one.
Feedback
Better price!
Not my favorite- I feel like it is way overpriced for a deodorant that just does not work that well
Feedback
price, quality of product
I liked the packaging and the scents but the deodorant did not actually deodorize me. So that’s a downside, product does not do what it says in my opinion.
Feedback
Ability to deodorize.
Searched for a more natural deodorant almost two years ago. Fell in love with native and been using it ever since. I love their coconut scent. Unlike other natural deodorants that don't have all of the chemicals and metals, this one actually works! I've hiked 10+ miles in 85 degree temps and somehow not smelled like a bag of hot garbage. It takes some time to get used to, especially if you're used to some sticky, middle-school targeted deodorant gel that smells like blue gatorade. But I'm a lifer here now.
Feedback
Continued evolution of the product is all I could ask for.
I've used this brand for YEARS and it truly keeps me fresh n' clean smelling.
Feedback
The newest cardboard deodorant applicators - I don't like how I need to push it up all the time.
wanted to like this but did not like how it doesnt help with body odor. it just masks it. not great
