Authentic Violette fr bisou balm

A moisturizing matte lipstick-meets-balm hybrid that imparts a sheer kiss of color. The unique formula blends into lips with a subtle blurring effect for the ultimate “bouche mordue” (just bitten lips) look that’s quintessentially French (after the iconic bold red lip). Swipe once for a natural flush, swipe more for buildable color pay-off.

Violette's Inspiration: “In France, after red lipstick, our favorite lip look is called “bouche mordue” (just bitten lips). To achieve it, we apply lip balm, a touch of lipstick, then kiss a tissue to remove excess shine so it looks more like our naked 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.”

Recommended use

Swipe Bisou Balm onto bare lips, applying just beyond the natural lip line. You can layer up to three coats depending on how much pigment you want.

If you have very dry lips, moisturize lips before applying.
