Mon Chéri [monh-sheh-ree] – a traditional cherry-covered chocolate candy: a brown-red hue with warm tones that's both fresh and sophisticated.
A sheer matte lipstick-meets-hydrating balm that delivers the iconic Bouche Mordue—or “just-bitten lips”—look in one step. The unique, moisturizing formula blends seamlessly into lips, diffusing color for a soft-focus, blurred finish that feels effortlessly French. Swipe once for a natural flush, or layer to build color payoff. Formulated with smoothing emollients, soft-focus powders, and botanical Lapacho Tree Extract, Bisou Balm helps hydrate lips while minimizing the appearance of fine lines. The result: sheer, buildable color with a soft-focus blur—like you’ve just been kissed.
Violette's Inspiration: “Mon Chéri is inspired by the color of a chocolate and cherry candy from my childhood. It is the perfect blend of sophistication, warmth, and freshness—offering a natural yet bold hue that suits all complexions. I like to think of it as the big sister to Bêtise—like your lips, but more saturated and elevated. It embodies my philosophy of transcending age and style, celebrating unapologetic self-love and confidence."

"I love Bétise (the perfect rose) and Calisson (the perfect neutral), but I just got Chocolat and it is everything, a perfect fall neutral straight from the 90's. These lipsticks are buildable alone or over a more moisturizing balm, but fairly drying alone. They definitely deliver the blur and smooth effect as advertised. They don't stay put long but leave a bit of a tint, and I reapply when needed."
"I absolutely adore the Bisou Balm! The formula makes it so easy and quick to use. I can always rely on it. The blurred effect is very flattering and doesn't dry the lips. Bonbon Myrtille is my favorite shade of the three I own. Can't wait to try the Chocolat one, I'm glad we got a cool brown! I recommended it to my sister who's not into the lipsticks, and she loved it too. You won't mess up! Plus, I reckon it'll last me for a long time; I've used mine daily for over 6 months and it's still only gone at the very top."
"I already owned two shades of the Bisou Balm so I know the formula. It's the most comfortable matte lipstick ever and I love that you can wear a sheer wash or build it up. The shade Chocolat is literally the perfect brown. I recomment this color and formula to everyone"
"I purchased Bisou Balm in Chocolat intending to use it to layer with Bonbon Myrtille on days I want a little less pink, but I fell in love with the gorgeous color all by itself <3 It’s so incredibly wearable for every day! It’s sheer but buildable, with a single layer giving a smooth sheer chocolate look, while two or three layers give a deeper color payoff. And yes, it’s awesome layered with my favorite Bonbon Myrtille too, giving that perfect slightly deepened rose. I a little sad I didn’t receive the chocolate pouch, but maybe they ran out??? Love my Bisou Balms in any case <3"
"Amazing! Can work either for day or for night time depending on the layers. It feels like a gentle soft film of the softest velour! Have medium olive to warm skin ,it doesn’t need lip liner can stand by its own! This is the first colour released in this line which seems not to warm and suitable for medium skin ,looking forward to see more like muted dark plum."
"I've always loved brown lip colour, but it often felt off on me. Either too dark or something. Violette managed to create a brown that I think will flatter most undertones. I've been using it daily, and I love it. Perfect for fall, perfect for that 90s look, look svery natural thanks to the formula."
"The color pay off is WAY lighter than all of the marketing materials. While I know it is supposed to be a buildable balm, there is just no color on me and certainly nothing like the ads (for reference I am light-medium neutral skin tone so it shouldn’t be an issue). I am almost wondering if I got a one from a bad batch? The formula is lovely, though.."
"I just tried Chocolat and I love it so much! Even though brown shades usually don't flatter my complexion, Chocolat is a wonderful surprise! It doesn't look dark or harsh at all. It is very flattering, with a color payoff that perfectly balances between multiple tones, and I can even say it leaves a subtle hint of purple. It definitely allows for so many color combinations. Also, a quick note about its texture: I own most of the Bisou Balms, but this one has the best feel on the lips by far. You nailed it once again, Violette! Thank you so much! P. S. La Pochette Chocolat is so elegant. It has a luxurious texture and a warm, chocolatey color!"
"Chocolate is the perfect shade. Its so natural on my face and now im going to dish ALLL my lipsticks and just use this one. Its perfect for me for all occasions. And u can build it up of course. But i like to use just one swipe. I wish there was lip liner that matches it from this brand. BTW, i use chocolate all over my face its perfect 🌹"
"Love Love love Bisou Balms. They're so comfortable on the lips. For a matte lipsticks they're not drying at all, in fact quite the opposite. Colours are builable, give lovely blurry effect and the application is so effortless, no need for a mirror, perfect for on the go. I have 5 shades of Bisou Balms and Mon Chéri is my favourite, followed closely by Chocolat💙"
