    Bonbon Myrtille [mer-tee] – a traditional blueberry candy.

    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: “In France, after the red lipstick, our favorite lip look is called 'bouche mordue' (just-bitten lips). To achieve it, we apply lip balm, add a touch of lipstick, and then kiss a tissue to remove excess shine, so it looks more like our natural lips. Bisou Balm leaves behind *just* the right amount of pigment and comes in the most delicious colors, inspired by the traditional French candies of my childhood."

        Perfect fall pout!

        "I saw an Instagram ad for this bisou balm in chocolat and was intrigued - I’d tried two other colors from violette and loved the consistency so I wanted to try this color. It is PERFECTION and actually I don’t know if there is a reformulation but the balm is actually SOFTER and MORE MOISTURIZING than the previous tubes I owned. The color is perfect chic Nicole Kidman fall 90s practical magic witchy perfection. Fan for life. Love. Would buy ten more, one for all besties!"

        Bisou Balm - Amour Fou - my absolute Favorite

        "Bisou Balm - is my favorite product from Violette. My favorite shade is ~ Amour Fou. It just seems to go with my entire wardrobe. I love how it goes on so smooth and makes my lips feel moist without being wet. I wear it every day, I have other colors too, but for me this is my go to ! Amour Fou !"

        — Melva W. (5/5)

        I love the Bisou Balms

        "I used to love strong lip looks, but am not really into them any more - to the point where most of my gorgeous lipsticks are unused. I have tried applying them with my fingers or blotting them but the shades and formulas don't translate well. The Bisou Balms give me the exact easy effect I want without the hassle. Mon Cheri really reminds me of the Mon Cheri cherry filled dark chocolates - it's a delicious cherry brown colour. I bought two and I'll be back for more. Pity you're outside the EU or I'd be buying nonstop."

        — Francesca A. (5/5)

        100000000/10

        "Buy this immediately. Not only is it super light weight, it’s subtle but also buildable allowing you to control how intense the color appears. It truly feels like I have nothing on my lips and it lasts me most of the day with little to no reapplication needed. I need to buy extras immediately. Also I’ve never left a review for makeup, this is a first for me so you can understand the impact this product had on me."

        — Erin O. (5/5)

        Absolutely love this!

        "I must say my expectations were low, only because heavy marketing in the cosmetics industry ins’t necessarily followed by high quality products, but i must say i ‘ve been blown away by the colour and the texture of this lipstick. It makes lips really smooth and has a very subtle aroma. I am a dark brunette with fair skin and the colour looks absolutely beautiful - the colour depth is also buildable. Sort of regretted not buying a second one."

        — tina l. (5/5)

        Balmy matte, not slick

        "I like it. It's a good daytime color. I don't care for reds and pinks and it's hard to find a color that matches the lips. The Bisou Balm Chocolat is perfect. It goes on smoothly, not too slick. I have had to re-apply it to keep the smooth feeling on my lips. At first i thought the scent was a little too sugary. Sort of like cotton candy or bubble gum, but i kind of like it now."

        — Jill W. (5/5)

        Love them!

        "I used to love strong lip looks, but am not really into them any more - to the point where most of my gorgeous lipsticks are unused. I have tried applying them with my fingers or blotting them but the shades and formulas don't translate well. The Bisou Balms give me the exact easy effect I want without the hassle. The Coquelicot is really poppy coloured - an easier to apply and wear version of my favourite orange red Marilyn Monroe colour. I bought two and I'll be back for more."

        — Francesca A. (5/5)

        Like chocolate raisin

        "This color is so lovely! I have very, very dark brown hair with red undertones, fair skin, hazel eyes and this is my favorite of all followed closely by Bonbon Myrtille, Betise, then Mon Cheri. It’s a rich brown that doesn’t look like a 1990s brown, it’s raisiny…a brown with the slightest purple grape tone. Very sophisticated!"

        — Rebecca T. (5/5)

        Il mio preferito

        "È stato amore alla prima applicazione. Innamorata di questo prodotto e soprattutto di questo colore cioccolato. Fantastico. Confortevole, aderente alle labbra senza tirarle, sembra di indossare una nuvola, sensazione piacevole e pur essendo opaco non enfatizza le pellicine o le labbra secche."

        — Filomena F. (5/5)

        "I just love all the Violette lip products, the colors are all great and don't turn too pink on me which happens with other products. They also have some decent staying power. My overall favorite lip line."

        — Robin (5/5)
