Introduction

A strong, shapely lower body is more than a fashion trend. The muscles of the hips and buttocks, called the gluteal muscles, are some of the largest and most important in the body. They help us walk, climb stairs, lift, run and stand up straight. Strong glutes support the lower back and knees and improve posture.

Today, many men and women want firmer, more toned hips and legs. Gyms are full of squats and lunges, and social media is full of “booty” workouts. Ayurveda, too, has long valued strong, well-nourished muscle tissue, which it calls mamsa dhatu.

Hakgala Booty Boost is a 100% herbal massage oil created for this purpose. It is prepared at the Ruwana Ayurvedic Laboratory for Hakgala Herbal Cosmetics, according to an ancient Sri Lankan Hela medicine recipe. We created it as a butt enhancement oil for men and women, made only for the development of the muscles of the hips and legs.

This article explains what is inside Booty Boost, what each herb is traditionally used for, how to use the oil with our five-step massage, and, most importantly, how to combine it with the exercises and food that really build strong, shapely glutes.

What is Booty Boost?

Booty Boost is a herbal body massage oil in a 50ml bottle. It is for external use only.

We make it according to a remarkable ancient secret recipe of Hela medicine, with 16 herbs, including:

Kollu (horse gram)
Puhul (ash gourd)
Amukkara (ashwagandha, Withania somnifera)
Wel penela (balloon vine, Cardiospermum halicacabum)
Binthal ala (a traditional yam)
Kaluduru (black cumin, Nigella sativa)

We recommend five simple massage steps: pour the oil into your palm, massage upwards, lift and shape, press inwards from the sides, and enjoy the result.

The Ayurvedic view of muscle and body shape

Ayurveda describes seven body tissues (dhatus). Muscle tissue, mamsa dhatu, is the third. It is said to give the body strength, shape and stability. It is nourished by good digestion, good food, enough rest and regular exercise.

When mamsa dhatu is weak, Ayurveda says the body becomes thin, tired and lacking in tone. Traditional care for weak muscles includes:

nourishing foods, such as pulses, milk, ghee, sesame and meat or fish
rejuvenating herbs (rasayana), such as ashwagandha
regular exercise (vyayama), done to half of one’s strength
oil massage (abhyanga), which Ayurveda says makes the body firm, strong and smooth

Booty Boost combines rejuvenating and strengthening herbs in an oil designed for regular massage of the hips and legs.

The herbs in Booty Boost

Amukkara (ashwagandha)

Ashwagandha is one of the most famous herbs in Ayurveda. Its name means “smell of a horse”, which refers both to the smell of its root and to the strength of a horse it is said to give. It is a classic rasayana for strength, stamina and muscle.

Several modern clinical trials of oral ashwagandha root extract, combined with resistance training, have reported greater gains in muscle strength and size than placebo. Those studies used capsules taken by mouth, not oil, but they help explain why ashwagandha has always been the herb of choice for strength in Ayurveda.

Kollu (horse gram)

Horse gram is a hardy pulse grown in the dry zone of Sri Lanka and India. It is very rich in protein. In Ayurveda it is known for its warming, drying and strengthening properties, and it is traditionally used in body massage powders and oils.

Puhul (ash gourd)

Ash gourd, or winter melon, is a cooling, nourishing vegetable. In Ayurveda it is considered a strengthening food, and ash gourd preparations are traditionally used to nourish the body.

Wel penela (balloon vine)

Balloon vine is a climbing plant with papery, balloon-shaped fruits. It is used in traditional medicine for joint and muscle pain. Laboratory and small clinical studies suggest it has anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing properties, and it is used in some modern skin creams.

Kaluduru (black cumin)

Black cumin, or Nigella sativa, is a seed used across Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Its oil contains thymoquinone, which has been widely studied for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Small clinical trials have found that topical Nigella sativa oil can ease knee pain, which shows that it can be useful in massage oils.

Binthal ala and the other herbs

Binthal yam and the other herbs come from the original 16-herb family recipe. Yams are traditionally considered nourishing and strengthening in Sri Lankan medicine.

The five-step Booty Boost massage

Here are our five massage steps, explained in detail.

The five-step Booty Boost massage

1Pourpour a few drops of oil into your palm and rub your hands together
2Liftmassage the buttocks with firm upward strokes, from the top of the thighs to the hips
3Shapeuse both hands to lift and shape each side in circular movements
4Presspress inwards from the outer hips towards the centre with your palms
5Finishmassage the backs of the thighs upwards and let the oil absorb

Figure 1: Our recommended routine, ideally after a warm shower.

How long? Massage for about 5 to 10 minutes.

How often? Once or twice a day.

Best time: After a warm shower, when the skin is clean and warm, or after your workout.

What the oil can and cannot do

It is important to be clear and honest. The size and shape of the hips and buttocks depend mainly on muscle, body fat and genetics. Muscle grows when it is challenged by exercise and fed with enough protein and energy. No oil can build muscle on its own.

So where does Booty Boost fit in?

Massage supports the muscles. Massage after exercise can reduce muscle soreness and help you feel ready for your next workout.
It keeps the skin soft and smooth. Regular oiling keeps the skin moisturised, which helps the area look smoother and more toned.
It supports routine and confidence. A daily massage reminds you of your goals and keeps you consistent with your training.
It follows the Ayurvedic approach, which always combined massage, exercise and nourishing food.

Use Booty Boost as part of a complete plan. The plan below shows how.

Building stronger glutes: the exercise plan

The glutes have three muscles: gluteus maximus, gluteus medius and gluteus minimus. To shape them, you need exercises that work all three.

Beginner exercises (at home, no equipment)

Glute bridge: Lie on your back with knees bent. Push through your heels to lift your hips, squeeze at the top and lower slowly. 3 sets of 12 to 15.
Bodyweight squat: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, sit back as if onto a chair, then stand up. 3 sets of 10 to 15.
Reverse lunge: Step one foot back and lower your back knee towards the floor, then return. 3 sets of 8 to 10 each leg.
Donkey kick: On your hands and knees, kick one leg up behind you with the knee bent. 3 sets of 12 to 15 each leg.
Side-lying leg raise: Lie on your side and lift your top leg. This works the gluteus medius. 3 sets of 15 each side.

Intermediate exercises (at home or in the gym)

Hip thrust: With your upper back on a bench or sofa, lift your hips with a weight across them.
Bulgarian split squat: With your back foot on a bench, lower into a single-leg squat.
Romanian deadlift: With a weight in your hands, hinge at the hips with a straight back.
Step-ups: Step onto a sturdy box or step, pushing through the front heel.
Banded side walks: With a resistance band around your knees, walk sideways.

Training tips

Train your glutes two or three times a week, with rest days in between.
Increase the challenge gradually by adding repetitions, sets or weight.
Focus on squeezing the glutes in every movement.
Warm up before training and stretch afterwards.
If you have knee, hip or back problems, ask a doctor or physiotherapist first.

Food for muscle

Muscle needs protein to grow. Most active adults benefit from about 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight a day, spread across meals.

Good Sri Lankan protein sources include:

fish, such as tuna, sprats (halmasso) and salmon
eggs and chicken
dhal, chickpeas (kadala), green gram (mung), cowpea and kollu
curd and milk
soya meat and tofu
peanuts, sesame and cashew

Eat enough energy, too. If you are very thin and want fuller hips, you may need to eat a little more than usual, from healthy foods such as rice, roti, yams, bananas and nuts.

Sleep and recovery

Muscles grow during rest, not during the workout. Aim for 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Ayurveda also recommends a regular daily routine (dinacharya), with fixed times for meals, exercise and sleep, which supports strength and recovery.

Why glutes become weak: the sitting problem

Modern life keeps us sitting for most of the day: in the bus or car, at the office desk, at meals and in front of the television in the evening. When we sit for long hours, the glute muscles are stretched and switched off, while the muscles at the front of the hips become tight.

Physiotherapists sometimes call this “gluteal amnesia”, meaning that the glutes forget how to work properly. The results can include:

flatter-looking hips
lower back pain
knee pain when climbing stairs
poor balance and posture
tiredness when walking long distances

The good news is that glutes respond quickly to training. Even a few minutes of glute exercises a day, and standing up to walk around every 30 to 45 minutes, can make a real difference.

Posture and shape

Posture changes how the hips and buttocks look. When the pelvis tilts too far forward or backward, or when the shoulders slump, the lower body can look flatter or less balanced.

Simple posture tips:

Stand tall, as if a string is gently pulling the top of your head upwards.
Keep your weight evenly on both feet.
Gently tighten your stomach muscles when standing and walking.
Do not lock your knees.
When sitting, keep your feet flat on the floor and your back supported.

Good posture, together with strong glutes and core muscles, gives the body a more confident, balanced shape.

Caring for the skin on your hips and thighs

The skin on the hips and thighs can become dry, rough or marked with stretch marks, especially after weight changes or pregnancy. Daily massage with a herbal oil keeps the skin moisturised and supple.

Skin-care tips:

Massage straight after a shower, when the skin is still slightly damp.
Exfoliate gently once a week with a soft scrub or a traditional herbal powder.
Wear breathable cotton clothing in hot weather to reduce sweat rashes.
Drink enough water and eat fruit and vegetables rich in vitamin C.

Body-shaping myths

“Only women need glute training.” Strong glutes help everyone. They protect the back and knees and improve sports performance for men and women.

“Lifting weights will make women bulky.” Women naturally have less of the hormones that build very large muscles. Strength training usually makes the body look firmer and more toned.

“You can choose where your body stores fat.” Genetics largely decides where fat is stored. Exercise and good food improve the whole body.

“Faster results come from using more oil.” A few drops are enough. Consistency matters far more than quantity.

Who can use Booty Boost?

Booty Boost is suitable for adult men and women who want a herbal massage oil for the hips, buttocks and legs.

Patch test first. Apply a little oil to the inside of your arm and wait 24 hours before using it more widely.

Please note:

For external use only. Do not swallow.
Do not use on broken, irritated or infected skin.
Avoid intimate areas, the eyes and mucous membranes.
Do not use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding unless your doctor advises it.
Keep out of reach of children.
Stop use if you develop redness, itching or a rash.

An example in practice

This is an illustrative example, not a real customer story.

Ishara is a 27-year-old graphic designer who sits at a desk for nine hours a day. She notices that her hips feel flat and her lower back aches by the evening. A physiotherapist tells her that her glute muscles have become weak from sitting.

She starts a simple home workout three times a week: glute bridges, squats, reverse lunges and side-lying leg raises. She adds an egg to breakfast and dhal or fish to every meal. After each workout and shower, she spends five minutes massaging Booty Boost into her hips and thighs, following our five massage steps.

After three months, Ishara’s back pain has eased, she can do twice as many squats, and her jeans fit better around the hips. The workouts built the muscle, and the massage became her favourite part of the routine.

Frequently asked questions

Will Booty Boost increase my hip size without exercise?

No. Muscle grows through exercise and good nutrition. Booty Boost is a herbal massage oil that supports your routine, keeps the skin soft and helps you relax and recover.

Can men use Booty Boost?

Yes. We made Booty Boost for both men and women. Many men use glute training to improve posture, strength and athletic performance.

How long before I see changes?

With regular glute training two or three times a week and enough protein, most people notice firmer muscles in 8 to 12 weeks. Visible changes in shape usually take several months.

Should I massage before or after a workout?

Either is fine. A short massage before training can help warm up the area. A longer massage after training and showering can help you relax and recover.

Can Booty Boost help with cellulite?

Regular massage can make the skin look smoother for a time. Cellulite is very common and is influenced by genetics, hormones and body fat. Exercise and a healthy weight help most.

Is the oil greasy?

Use only a few drops at a time and massage until it absorbs. Wipe off any extra oil before dressing.

Can I use it with Hakgala Slim?

Yes. Some people use Hakgala Slim on the belly and waist and Booty Boost on the hips and thighs. See Herbal Article 2 for more about Hakgala Slim.

How should I store Booty Boost?

Close the cap tightly and keep the bottle in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Shake gently before use, as natural herbal oils can settle.
