I’ve always believed inspiration is everywhere — in the light on a building, in the quiet strength of motherhood, in the colors and textures of nature, and in the artists and muses who move me. When I create, I don’t start with a product. I start with a feeling. From art and wellness to motherhood and the natural world, these are a few of the sources I’m always drawn to — and a little something I made or found that carries each one with it.
Avec Amour,
Violette
| | The people around me inspire me endlessly — their energy, their attitude, the way they wear beauty beyond makeup. So much so that every Bisou Blush shade is named after a special woman in my life. From Marnie’s sun-kissed warmth to Maryam’s fiery spirit, to my daughter Inès’ cheeks when she was a baby, each one holds a memory and a piece of my heart.
| | My girls are my greatest source of inspiration. They remind me to slow down, to notice the magic in small things, and to treasure our time together. Right now, we’re reading T’choupi the Penguin, and it’s so sweet watching my youngest, Lune, try to “read” along like her big sister. These quiet moments — cuddled up with a book — mean everything to me. | | So much of what I create is about harnessing the power of nature in its purest form. At our country home, surrounded by a thick blanket of snow, I’m constantly reminded how restorative nature can be. Boum-Boum Milk is inspired by that same philosophy — using fermented birch sap and mineral-rich glacial water that truly nourishes the skin, never just fillers. For me, it’s always about getting the most out of every element.
| | Art has shaped me since I was young — from painting classes to wandering museums and collecting pieces that move me. I’m always absorbing colors, textures, and emotions, then letting them quietly inform my formulas. Lately, these metallic watercolors have completely captivated me. Painting with them feels like a small meditation — a moment just for myself.
| | It’s hard to feel inspired if you’re not feeling well. When my nervous system is calm and I’m truly rested, everything flows more easily. Sleep is essential for me. I love how this device helps create gentle rituals — reminders to wind down, phone-free time, and waking slowly with a soft sunrise instead of a harsh alarm. It’s such a simple way to care for yourself.
