Amour Fou [ah-more foo] – crazy love: a soft crimson whisper of color.
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."
0.08oz / 2.5g
Swipe Bisou Balm onto bare lips, applying just beyond the natural lip line. Layer up to three coats depending on the desired pigment.
For very dry lips, moisturize before applying.

Perfect for everyday use, this balm is your solution for maintaining luscious lips all day long. Treat yourself to the ultimate lip care experience!"
"First of all I had great expectations about this product! I like the shade but I am not mad about it, I like also the fact that is buildable, on the other side the formula must be improved, especially considering the price range! Once applied It feels uncomfortable like it dries my lips and on top is not long lasting! Ps I have dry lips and I prep them with hyaluronic acid serum and Vaseline regardless once I apply the lipstick the uncomfortable feeling begins 🥹"
"I loved this balm that I have placed a new order in a different shade and also trying out the Figue lip jelly. What I love about the lip balm is the sense of having a structured lipstick but not the feeling of heavy make up. The shade is beautiful and subtle and the blur effect makes it so easy to weary Love it"
"Ce baume répond à toutes mes attentes. Les rouges à lèvres mat ont tendance à assécher les lèvres mais ce n'est pas le cas de celui-ci. Il est hydratant, pas trop couvrant et tient dans le temps. Et la couleur ! Quelle merveille que ce bonbon coquelicot qui donne bonne mine et illumine le visage ! Merci Violette !"
"Hello, Violette I am loving all of your products thus far. This particular lip balm I have in several colors, all of them are sheer and easy to layer and that is a wonderful attribute for a balm. The colors are easy to wear with almost everything. I look forward to seeing more of your line in Sephora stores."
"My very first impression was another failed lip product. It seemed dry and not transfering color to my lips, however after warming it a bit and several swipes to build up the color this might just be PERFECT!!! Its soft, not shiny but not totally matte either. Its a perfect touch of color, for the seriously just kissed kinda look. If this wears good and stays on for a least a couple hours, ill be ordering more. Really hoping for a cool toned deep plum/brown. I just smooched the back of my hand and no transfer of pigment! Its a win so far!! 💜"

"I love the feel and build ability, but the color is just not what I’m seeing in this photo. It’s not as vibrant much more muted tone no blue undertones at all. Bummed about the color but I will still use it."
"My mom was a hairstylist for over 30 years. After puberty, my "tomgirl" era ended, and I became obsessed with beauty products, services, body positivity, and self-love. Now that I'm nearing 60, yikes- it goes fast- I have honed and crafted my style and products. After decades of experimenting with various makeup brands, Violette_FR is the ONLY lip color that I use. First, the colors are rich and vibrant, and the application is very easy. I love the "blurred" lipstick effect; it is classy, modern, and has that effortless cool girl look. I have purchased 10-12 different formulations (plume lip, bissou jelly, gloss, lip nectar, and balm amour). I love mixing colors and formulations, and I receive compliments from colleagues and random people in checkout lines or at restaurants. I HIGHLY recommend!"
"I really like the color and texture of this product. It looks very natural and something I could wear all day every day. My only issue was the mail carrier used for international purchases. I ordered my product on July 9 and it took 14 days to get to me (from the US to Mexico, literally neighboring countries)."
