Thumbs up…
I really like the products and they have good customer service.
Give it a try!
A great product for me. Unlike most aluminum free deodorants, this is effective and lasts the day (won't last for multiple days on end). Wasn't expecting much, but am very pleased and will be purchasing again. Would recommend trying it.
Love it!
Despite the current pandemic my order arrived from the US in about 2 weeks. I purchase 2 of the sensitive versions for myself and one of the normal ones for my husband.
I work from home and because I@ve barely left the house since mid Feb, haven't used deodorant every day. Having recently moved from bottle shampoo & conditioner to all natural solid shampoo and conditioner bar I was prepared for a transition period and grateful this one didn't involve dowsing my hair in ACV.
However, the Native deodorants work brilliantly from day one - perhaps as I've already done the detox, and I love the fragrances. They smell exactly as I'd expect them to and last all day.. I've not had adverse reactions. They are a little difficult to put on at first but once you get used to it, all plain sailing.
Now I'm leaving the house abit more I'm grateful to be able to use something that is kind to me and the environment.

Didn’t work at all (despite reapplying during the day). Wouldn’t recommend at all.
unpleasant, rash inducing
This is not the first natural deo I've tried. It is unpleasant to apply to your underarms (its like rubbing a dry bar of soap onto your skin). The scents are nice, but they don't last on the skin long at all. I was going to give it the 14 days to stop making me smell bad (because I did smell bad), but I broke out into a rash by day 4. Stopped immediately. I was using the lavender and rose scent. Would NOT recommend this product.
It is scam
It is scam, don't pay even through Paypal, I order one laptop and two bikes, nothing deliver, when i ask pay pal then Native gave the fake tracking number.

The absolute best deodorant every made!!!!!
Made me breakout
This made me breakout. I noticed pimples, bumps, and redness after a few weeks. However, I continued using it for 6 months because I thought my body just needed time to adjust but they never went away and I constantly had pimples and bumps. The scent was great and I loved the way it smelled but it was not for me.
Disappointed, wouldn't recommend!
Didn't receive what I ordered and took forever to arrive. The scent is pleasant at first but by the end of the day smells like extremely potent plasticine it's really terrible! I'm not impressed, I've switched back to normal deodorants but may try one of the UK based natural deodorant companies such as Wild. Customer service is lacking as I've very clearly explained I haven't received what I ordered but this hasn't been resolved and only one part of my query answered. Disappointed, wouldn't recommend.
Rash😔
Hi Native😀
I've been using your product for over a month now and it's been working fab until I noticed a rash under both my armpits. I stop using the product for 2 days to see if the rash ease,but it hasn't and I have really bad BO which I'd didnt have before. I would really appreciate some advice please.
I look forward in hearing from you.
😀😀
Mediocre product and terrible service
Mediocre product and terrible service.
My order took over a month to deliver. Tried the product for a few weeks and it doesn't work very well. I basically get nasty B.O. after a few hours and I am not even sweating and typically not a stinky person. So I emailed the company asking for a refund according to their 30 day return policy. They told me it was past the return window and they couldn't help me. But I had the product for less than 30 days (unless they are counting the 30+ days it took to deliver? The product is also 3 times the price of most deoderant on the market - definitely not worth it.
Deordorant works but smells bad and terrible customer service
Funny the reviews on their website give them nearly 5 stars average but on other sites it's much lower. You also can't filter the reviews on their website to see just the 1 or 2 star reviews. There's no phone customer service and the email customer service is like talking to a bot. It's very strange. They hugely miscalculated naming their company Native even though it has no indigenous affiliation. My other biggest complaint is that they've recently changed the way they scent the deordorants, and are denying it. Before it was purely with essential oils etc clearly listed on the ingredient list. But now there is a "fragrance" ingredient on the list and the once natural smelling deordorant now smells like cheap perfume. Exactly not what I'm looking for in a natural deordorant. I'm told the only ones now that don't include "fragrance" are the unscented and lavender & rose. Anyway, I'm desperate for a natural deordorant that works, which is why I'm bothering so much with them. The deordorant does work (aside from the sensitive) for me, just wish dealing with them was easier.
Doesn’t work
Saw an ad on a YouTube video that apparently wasn’t sponsored but the lady sweared but it as she has had a life time struggle of sweating and this deodorant she only need to apply once a day and never sweated or smelt.
Nooooooo it took months to get to me and I’ll put it on in the morning or after a shower at night and not even an hour later I’m so sweaty and smell and I’m a stay at home mum so not even very active, plus it’s winter.
I watched other reviews which they all said the same but it doesn’t work.
Giving it 2 stars instead of one because I liked the packaging and the product smells nice and I liked that it was natural ingredients but I would not recommended it to anyone nor buy again.
This is important...
I honestly can't believe how many people are complaining about shipping times. Do you guys watch the news? It's called a global pandemic. Come on! Companies around the world are doing the best the can to keep up with demand in an ever-changing situation. Across. The. World. Let's show a little understanding at a time like this. ❤️
Also, IF you are switching to a natural deodorant for the first time, there most likely WILL be a transition time. Meaning, you most likely won't get instant results. It's not Native's fault, it's science. If you don't know about that, Google it. Deodorant detox, switching to natural deodorant, etc. You'll find lots of helpful info! It's very important to know about this, and yet so many reviews are negative towards this company due to their own personal lack of knowledge.
Now to the most important part:
I am honestly and completely in love with Native deodorant. After years and years of ongoing health issues, I was desperate to make the switch to natural deodorant. I can't begin to say how much money I wasted on not-so-good alternatives. I was hesitant to spend the extra money on Native, so I tried a little sample size of Lavender and Rose, and quickly fell in love.
In my case, I had already started the awkward transition from "conventional" deodorants to a natural alternative, so it didn't take long for me to realize that Native is the real deal. Give it time and you will see results! If you're struggling with the transition, try carrying some deodorant wipes and/or deodorant spray in your bag or purse. I personally love Pacifica rose deodorant spray (it compliments the Native Lavender and Rose scent well), and also the wipes from the same brand are excellent. Hopefully Native will come out with some of their own versions of these two types of products in the near future, because in my opinion, they're must haves during the transition.
My advice is to be cautious if ordering from Amazon. I didn't believe the reviews at first, but after ordering Native deodorant from their website for the first time, I am now curious about some differences in the packaging and ingredients.
There is some suspicion of "fake" versions being sold there (based on some of the reviews I read), and I've contacted Native directly to investigate. I'll report back with solid answers. I highly recommend purchasing from them directly from their website or from Target (or target.com). This is the only deodorant I will ever use again. It's fantastic!
I decided to keep my deodorant because…
I decided to keep my deodorant because it actually did work until it didn’t after using it over a month. So I tried to return and they only accept returns before thirty days.
My pits have been fresh all day after only one application!
Wow, just wow. From the moment I saw the adverts I was mesmerised by the scent options. Then I was stunned that the shipping to UK was free!
I waited only 1 week for the parcel, I was prepared to wait longer anyway, the email updates are totally informative and so caring! I loved the little stories in the updates so entertaining.
Then I opened them and wow, they smelt amazing. Good enough to eat! I recommend you don't eat it though 😂
Unlike others I didn't incur a shipping fee at all, so the total for 3 full sized deodorants + one travel sized was a little under £27, complete bargain in my opinion for a product I've now tried and know lasts all day and makes my armpits smell good enough to eat 😂
You've got yourself a lifelong customer Native, and I've converted a few ladies to try them out too. Good job guys !
I have tried several different ones
I have tried several different ones. For some reason I find certain scents match my body chemistry better then others. I found some made me stink while others offered better protection. The sensitive kind works amazingly well.
very very very bad
very very very bad. I bought the product from amazon. later and my family and relatives wanted this product. I ordered 100 pieces but they canceled the order. They accused me of unjustly. They said I bought the product to sell, but they did not prove. I did not buy the product to sell and I am not a seller !!!!!!!

Great scents, vegan & long lasting.
I purchased native a month back and it's been exceptional ever since. It came after about a week. Great if you're looking for something vegan and animal friendly for a great price. They're very good value for money and still have alot to go off my £10 one.
They're so nice to use over a spray, it feels so natural and smooth.
Highly recommend!
