Hello Girls, Still hooked on Baby Lips? I know it’s one of the most talked about lip balm in the town but sometimes, I really get bored of using this sometimes. And then I dig deeper into my stash and I find some really cool lip balms. I got Matra Holistic Lip Care in recent Fab Bag, I did not toss this into my stash intentionally. I used it for some days & then it got lost into my dresser drawer somehow. But I stumbled upon it few days back & used it again, realizing how amazing it is. So here I am writing about this lip balm.

Ingredients
Packaging
It comes in an intractable packaging which is quite convenient for lip balms. Since the flavor is Kiwi, the packaging is also dark green colored. The mouth of the lip balm is covered with dark green colored small cap. Ingredient list and other specifications are mentioned on the pack. There are small kiwis too printed on the packaging. The lip balm is small enough to fit into the palm of my hand.
Color, Texture & Smell
The lip balm is bright green colored mimicking pulp of kiwi fruit. The smell is also refreshing kiwi. The lip balm is waxy but doe not make my lips feel weird. It glides on my lips effortlessly providing nourishment with first swipe. But it does not provide any color to my lips. The lip balm is colorless.
My Experience
What do I expect a lip balm to do? It should heal cracked lips. It should moisturize dry lips. It should protect my lips. It should smell nice. It should not taste funny. It should be as natural as one lip balm could be. I find, Matra Lip Balm, to deliver all these claims. That too without providing any tint to my lips.
I totally love this lip balm. It is highly moisturizing & caring to my lips. It is natural & organic. It is devoid of harmful chemicals. The smell is mild & refreshing. Smells like kiwis. There is no after taste.
The lip balm is colorless which some might not like, but it is a big plus to me. Since sometimes I just need moisture to my lips & no tint. It is colorless. So I can wear this beneath matte lip colors whenever I need this. It does not give intense shine or glossiness to lips. I just feel a protective layer on my lips which is highly desirable. It does not interfere with the application of lip products above it. It means my matte lipsticks stay matte but my lips does not dry out.
The lip balm is going to last me very long since one swipe across my lips is enough to provide enough moisture & protection. The lip balm stays for 3-4 hours on my lips, and after that too the moisturizing effect too stays on my lips.
The brand claims that it contains SPF but has not mentioned the amount.
