Native reviews and discussion

Reviews mention

  • Refined, natural-leaning fragrances
  • Gentle, sensitive-skin formulas
  • Smooth, comfortable application
  • Attractive, sustainable packaging
  • Inconsistent odor protection longevity
  • White residue and shirt staining
  • Occasional gritty, sticky texture
  • Body wash sometimes feels drying

Native earns praise for clean ingredients, standout scents (Coconut & Vanilla, Cucumber & Mint, Lilac & White Tea, Citrus & Herbal Musk) and comfortable, non-irritating wear for many, but reviews say performance is inconsistent: the deodorant often fades by midday, struggles in heat/workouts, can leave white residue or shirt stains, and some experience rashes or gritty texture. Reviews of body wash and hair care skew positive for gentle lather and pleasant aromas, though a few find body wash drying and shampoos underwhelming. Overall, Native is a good natural option if you don’t sweat heavily and will reapply; heavy sweaters may need stronger protection.

  • I like it !

  • I absolutely love the smell. My favorite is Lilac and White Tea. I have Uber sensitive skin so I can only use it for 2-3 days in a row before it irritates my skin. Not really a fault of Native, just how I react to it. I’m assuming it’s the fragrance that I’m reacting to. Admittedly I haven’t tried the scent free.

  • The deodorant smells great and doesn't irritate my underarms.

  • Kept me dry and smelling good all day. It goes on smooth and leaves a thick layer to protect you from sweating.

  • Love Native. I’ve been using the deodorant for over 7 years now. No problems at all! Love all the fun scents. Keeps me dry all day long and I didn’t have any problems with itching like other deodorant give me.

  • I was never really able to get past the "purging" phase of Native Deodorant, especially with their candy shop collection. I would be smelly at least to myself within hours. The Lilac and White Tea deodorant did better in terms of masking the smell, but I had been using it for at least 3 months and it still wouldn't last past half the day. I did like the scents and the idea of clean deodorant, but it just was not for me even when I applied plenty. Also, would leave stains on some of my whiter clothing including bras

  • I can't rave enough about Native's Coconut and Vanilla deodorant! I have never felt passionately about deodorants before but I am hooked. The scent is absolutely divine. What I love most is how effortlessly it glides on, thanks to its unique formula of coconut oil and shea butter. It keeps sweat at bay all day long, despite using natural ingredients and an aluminum-free formula. It's truly a game-changer in the world of deodorants. If you're looking for a product that not only smells amazing but also works wonders, look no further than Native's Coconut and Vanilla deodorant!

  • I like the product, but I wouldn’t purchase again because I have an issue with sweating and it really didn’t take care of the issue

  • Love the deodorant

  • They sent my package to the wrong house and at first I tried calling and nobody answered 😔 and then I emailed them and they don't want to send me my money back. But if you return it they will send your money back. These people are a bunch of thieves and liars. I wish I can get my money back.

  • My daughter loves this product. She has used the body wash and deodorant sticks. I like how pleasant the scents that are offered are. Native offers a great variety of products and scents. There will be something that perks your interest.

  • Smells so good and leaves my body feeling soft and smooth. The ingredients are clean! My spray tan artist recommended it to me.

  • I tried the vanilla coconut scent and it was okay at first, but ended up stinky and staining my clothes.

  • Love Native for my teens and tweens and husband. I try to stick to cleaner ingredient products but as the kids grow they tend to want something more mainstream. Native keeps us all happy. I'm happy with the better ingredients and my kids all like the variety and effectiveness of the products. As someone extremely sensitive to fragrance I can't use the products myself but it doesn't bother me when the scent lingers on them like many other fragrance added products do.

  • Hands down the best deodorant on the market! Smells nice and also all natural so I don’t feel bad about using this product.

  • i loved their line with baked by melissa i think it was called. the peach scent was such a good scent and i hope they bring it back!!

  • It’s alright, not personally my favorite or anything but it’s okay. For me, the smell didn’t last as long as I needed it too, it also isn’t very strong either. Maybe for someone else with a mild b.o it would be good for.

  • I have used the deodorant, body wash, and face wash! I love them all. My favorite is the seasonal sugar cookie body wash!

  • Purchased this for my son, but it just doesn't last as long as conventional deoderant. Love the packaging, ingredients, and fragrance, but just wish it lasted longer so he didn't have to reapply so often.

  • I have been using this deodorant for almost a year now and I haven’t found anything for efficient since.
