Native earns mixed-to-positive reviews: its deodorants and body washes smell exceptional and many users say they work for everyday wear, while others report short wear time, residue, and staining. Reviews praise clean-feeling formulas, sensitive-skin options, and standout scents like Coconut & Vanilla, Eucalyptus & Mint, and Citrus & Herbal Musk, but note inconsistent odor control in heat/workouts, occasional rashes or grit, and cardboard-packaging ergonomics.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I like that this brand is readily available- although find a few issues with some products. I do like the deodorant but not a fan of the body wash at all. I found the body wash drying and lacking on scent.
Feedback
Less drying formula for body wash. Longer lasting deodorant.
I enjoy this brand so much. I hold back from purchasing every new release. My favorite scent so far is the Eucalyptus Mint. Also have loved their partnerships such as Baked by Melissa was very wonderful and the scents were very on brand.
Feedback
Potentially expanding to mini/travel sizes of the body wash. The bottle is such great scent and value, but it is sometimes difficult to travel with.
The scent is ok (tested the lavender one) but did not do much for my sweat :(
I tried the deodorant, and it immediately made me break out, so I gave it to my husband who now swears it’s his favorite bathroom product. May work for some but not for others!
I've used Native for a couple of years on and off. I like the scents that they have compared to a lot of other natural brands. It feels nice on the skin and provides some coverage.
Feedback
I often get yellow staining on my clothing with this deodorant compared to other natural deodorants. Also, the travel deodorant is a bit small for the price.
Good, but left white residue on my clothes. It does what it says though, and covers up sweat smells while not irritating armpits.

It’s a great brand overall but i can’t get past the transition to natural deodorant.
Feedback
Maybe make a temporary deodorant that helps transition to natural
I have the Bergamot and Grapefruit scent of deodorant and it smells amazing. I used it for awhile and it does the job of keeping body odor from smelling really bad but I noticed that by the end of the day, sometimes the body odor comes through the deodorant. It also clumps up and leaves a white stain really easily on clothes compared to just regular deodorant. Aluminum based products aren’t harmful to the body and work much better.
Feedback
Come out with deodorants that have aluminum because I really loved the grapefruit and bergamot scent
I love the plastic-free options as well as the seasonal scents. I have sensitive underarms and Native is one of the few deodorants that hasn't irritated my skin. I appreciate that the scents aren't overpowering and I haven't noticed any sour smells if I sweat. Packaging is simple, which I enjoy. I've been getting Native for a few years now and honestly, the only reason it's not a 5 is simply the price. It's a spendy deodorant.
Feedback
Wish there was a value-bundle or value-size... anything to save a few bucks.

Really enjoyed the product, took about a week of solid use to see any affect.
Feedback
Sometimes it leaves white powdery residue on my black clothes
It's a natural deodorant, so the bacteria isn't killed so it will stink after a point of sweating
Feedback
Should come with glycolic acid to kill the bacteria that causes oder

Non irritating, goes on smooth and doesn’t feel like it’s there. Tried 2 types: peppermint smells amazing but not overwhelming. The anti-perspirant unscented one really works. Great brand!
This is the only natural deodorant that works for me. It smells really good and keeps me fresh all day. It’s also really moisturizing and comes in so many scents. I have tried the body wash too and I like it as well. Nothing crazy amazing but I love their ingredients and packaging.
Feedback
The only cons I have about native deodorant is that it seems a little greasy and leaves greasy marks in my clothes under my arms. It isn’t too bad in my every day clothes but I wear scrubs to work and they are stained from it. The price is also pretty high for deodorant but I do like the ingredients.

I love the messaging and the products smell really good. However, I have found that they don’t do well with what they’re supposed to do, which is stop people from smelling badly.

I have tried several scents. Love the product. Love the subtle scent. They are definitely unisex in the best way.

I think some of their products are great (body wash, etc.) but found others to miss the mark (deodorant). Love the simple ingredients.
Feedback
Perhaps a different deodorant formula.

I really wanted to like this product but didn’t. I had a good smell and smooth texture which can be difficult to find with natural deodorant.
Feedback
I broke out in a rash each time I tried it. I thought it was from switching to a natural deodorant so I stopped for a few months. When I tried the second time (with a new scent) I broke out in the same rash.
The deodorant gave me a painful red rash. Aluminum is better.
Feedback
Put less irritating ingredients and maybe people will buy your stuff.

I wanted to love this but it just could not hold up during the summer time. Even with frequent reapply, it was not a match for me. It also left stain on my shirts, which I ended up having to strip to remove
Feedback
If you can find a way to block odor and make a less greasy formula it would be great
personally I really enjoy this deodorant brand. They are a true deodorant not an anti-perspirant which can turn some people off. I personally really like the feeling of the product on my skin and how it does not stain my clothes or stick to my clothes.
Feedback
The bottom turn knob is not very smooth and not very sturdy so when I am applying the deodorant it can sometimes get pushed back down into the product container
