Kigelia, a fruit with many cosmetic virtues

The natural power of Kigelia to help your figure

In a world where the quest for the perfect body is often associated with invasive, artificial or ephemeral solutions, a lasting trend is emerging: natural, functional beauty, in harmony with the body . At Abeli , we firmly believe that the ideal silhouette does not depend on morphology, but on the confidence that each woman cultivates through her habits, her movement, and the care she chooses to apply to her body.

It is in this vision that an exceptional botanical active ingredient, kigelia africana , comes into play. It has been used for centuries by African women to firm their skin and maintain the tone of certain strategic areas of the body. Far from being a marketing promise, kigelia is now validated by scientific research for its firming, hydrating and restructuring effects.

Abeli: the union of plant science and respect for the body

Abeli ​​was born from a simple idea: to empower women through comprehensive programs based on a synergistic trilogy :

  • 100% natural care , enriched with powerful plants like kigelia
  • Internal cures to stimulate the natural functions of the skin and metabolism
  • Targeted muscle programs , designed to activate the tone of key areas (glutes, stomach, bust)

Beauty B innovation embodies this synergy: an expert formulation combining kigelia, plant peptides and plumping agents, designed to transform your skin and enhance your figure.

Kigelia & Beauty B: a visible, natural and hormone-free push-up effect

The push-up effect sought by thousands of women does not have to rely on extreme interventions or hormonal substances. Thanks to the gentle but powerful action of kigelia , it is now possible to achieve:

  • Firmer, more toned skin on the buttocks, thighs and bust
  • A natural curve reinforced by massages and the targeted application of Beauty B
  • A visible improvement in skin density from the first weeks

At Abeli, we've formulated smart treatments that work from the inside out, along with simple yet powerful muscle-building exercises you can do at home without any equipment.

A global and sustainable approach to beauty

This comprehensive 20,000-word guide is designed as a reference manual on kigelia , its history, its composition, its proven benefits, its integration into our products and its complementarity with Abeli ​​sports plans targeting the glutes .

You'll discover how this rare plant, powered by Beauty B technology, can transform your skincare routine, boost your confidence, and help you achieve visible results—naturally.

The power of plant life meets the power of movement. Together, they reveal the strongest, most confident, and most radiant version of yourself.

Kigelia africana – sacred plant & botanical treasure

In the world of medicinal and cosmetic plants, certain species stand out for their rarity, effectiveness, and long history of use. Kigelia africana , nicknamed the “sausage tree” due to the distinctive shape of its fruit, is one of them. Native to tropical Africa, it has been used for centuries by women to firm their skin, improve their body tone, and preserve their youth.

Geographical origin of kigelia

Kigelia africana grows naturally in the subtropical regions of West, East and South Africa, mainly:

  • In Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon
  • In the wetlands of Benin, Togo and Congo
  • Along the rivers and savannahs of southern Africa (Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia)

This densely leafed tree can reach 15 to 20 meters in height. Its massive fruits, hanging from long stems, can weigh up to 10 kg. Although toxic in their raw form, they become powerful extracts after controlled processing.

An ancestral use in African cultures

For generations, African women have used kigelia in their skincare routine, particularly for:

  • Firming breasts, buttocks, hips and stomach after childbirth
  • Preserve skin firmness and elasticity against heat and UV rays
  • Treat skin conditions (eczema, mycoses, superficial scars)
  • Balancing feminine energy and harmonizing body curves

These customs were passed down orally, within family circles, between women. Kigelia was often incorporated into homemade balms, oily macerates, or poultices.

3. A sacred plant in some cultures

In Central Africa, kigelia is sometimes considered a protective tree , capable of preserving the vital energy of women and strengthening their roots. It is found in certain fertility rituals, passage to adulthood or post-natal return.

“Kigelia is not just a treatment, it is a blessing. It connects a woman to her strength.”

From traditional use to modern cosmetics

It was not until the late 1990s that European and Japanese researchers began to study the properties of this plant. Their discoveries confirmed ancestral knowledge:

  • Kigelia promotes collagen production
  • It firms the skin and improves elasticity from 3 weeks
  • It reduces the visible signs of skin aging

Since then, natural cosmetic laboratories have become interested in it and are incorporating it into serums, anti-aging creams, and treatments for sagging areas.

Why Abeli ​​chose kigelia

For Abeli, it wasn't just about following a trend. Kigelia was selected for:

  • Its proven power on the natural firmness of the skin
  • Its excellent skin tolerance, even on sensitive skin
  • Its resonance with our mission: to offer women visible results without compromise

Integrated into our Beauty B formulation , it becomes the central element of our Push Up , Push Up Boost and Prise de Forme treatments, directly linked to our targeted gluteal sports programs .

Kigelia africana & origin

Kigelia africana is an ancestral African plant used to firm the skin , improve its tone and promote a natural curve . At Abeli, it embodies a return to basics, a natural response to the needs of today's women. As a major active ingredient in Beauty B , it offers an effective and respectful alternative to all women wishing to sculpt their figure without compromise.

The benefits of Kigelia on female skin & the natural push-up effect

Far from the empty promises of traditional cosmetics, kigelia africana provides a natural, effective and gentle response to the specific needs of women in terms of firmness, shape and skin radiance . At Abeli , we have observed that its targeted actions become even more visible when combined with a well-designed muscle program – hence the birth of our dual approach: care + movement .

Deep skin firming

One of the most sought-after benefits of kigelia is its ability to visibly firm sagging areas of the body, including:

  • The buttocks (upper and lower)
  • The hips
  • The chest (including the neckline)
  • The belly and the inside of the arms

Thanks to the saponins and peptides integrated into Beauty B , the skin gains tone from the second week, without an “artificially tight” effect.

Natural and progressive push-up effect

The push-up effect provided by kigelia is not a temporary illusion: it is based on a structural strengthening of the skin . The skin tissue becomes denser, the curve rises, the contours are better defined:

  • Day 7-14 : Skin feels firmer to the touch, first signs of tone
  • Day 15-21 : Better fit, reshaped silhouette
  • Day 22-28 : Visibly lifted buttocks, smoother and more toned skin

Using our Push Up Cure together with Abeli ​​glute exercises significantly enhances this effect.

Dermal thickening & tone

Unlike simple hydration, kigelia acts on the deep structure of the skin. By stimulating fibroblasts, it causes a thickening of the epidermis, responsible for:

  • Better resistance to shocks (friction, tight clothing)
  • A feeling of permanent tonicity
  • A visible reduction in the “flabby skin” effect

Combined with series of squats, lunges or glute bridges, the result is tenfold.

Targeted action on “rebel” areas

Certain areas of the body are particularly difficult to tone despite sport or care:

  • The lower part of the buttocks
  • The outer hips (“love handles”)
  • The upper bust

Localized application of Beauty B enriched with kigelia , morning and evening, helps smooth the skin, strengthen the tissues and shape the silhouette naturally .

Plumping effect on thin & dehydrated skin

Thanks to the polysaccharides in kigelia, the skin is deeply hydrated, which restores plumpness and a velvety feel, even without makeup or silicone cream.

This gentle plumping is ideal for women who want visible results, without artifice.

Visible results with the Abeli ​​program

When integrated into an Abeli ​​program (treatment + home buttocks program), kigelia shows:

  • +34% firmness measured in 21 days
  • +42% skin elasticity on the buttocks
  • +29% curve perceived by customers

“I haven't gained weight, but my body is plumper, firmer, and more defined. And I feel like my skin is more beautiful to the touch, even without anything on.”
Amina, user of the Push Up Cure + Abeli ​​buttocks program

Natural push-up benefits of kigelia

Kigelia africana is one of the only plant-based active ingredients to offer a 100% natural push-up effect, without hormones, fillers or surgery. Its firming, toning and plumping action is reinforced by Abeli's Beauty B formula , and increased tenfold by a targeted muscle routine.

Today, it is the heart of our glute shaping , skin firming and natural body transformation programs.

Beauty B — Abeli's exclusive technology enriched with Kigelia

At Abeli , each formula is designed as a functional response to the needs of the female body. Beauty B is the most accomplished expression of this. This exclusive cosmetic complex combines kigelia africana with synergistic plant extracts, natural peptides, and a base of light oils. The goal is simple: to firm the skin, stimulate curves, and enhance the silhouette naturally, without compromising tolerance, texture, or sensoriality.

A targeted response to strategic women's areas

The female body has areas with high aesthetic potential but also prone to sagging:

  • Buttocks
  • Bust
  • Thighs
  • Hips
  • Belly

The Beauty B formulation is designed to address the specific skin conditions of these areas: thin skin, mobility, tension, localized storage, loss of elasticity.

The role of Kigelia in Beauty B

At the heart of Beauty B is a concentrated extract of kigelia africana titrated at 20% saponins, obtained by gentle cold extraction. This active ingredient is known for:

  • Its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin
  • Its immediate tightening effect after application
  • Its firming power clinically observed after 2 to 3 weeks

It is the main active ingredient in **Beauty B** to provide a visible, lasting and sensory result.

Synergy of complementary natural active ingredients

To maximize the action of kigelia, the Beauty B formula also contains:

  • Organic sesame oil : rapid penetration and circulatory stimulation
  • Plant peptides : deep dermal restructuring
  • Natural vitamin E : antioxidant protection against UV rays and pollution
  • Maca extract : indirect muscle toning

This synergy offers a triple action: firming, nourishing, and toning .

Texture designed for daily use

Beauty B comes in the form of a light, non-greasy, non-sticky fluid that absorbs quickly, allowing for quick application after sport or showering. It is:

  • Silicone-free
  • Paraben-free
  • No synthetic fragrance
  • 100% vegan

Ideal for active women, young mothers, or athletes looking for effective care without wasting time.

Complementarity with Abeli ​​sports programs

The Beauty B formula is designed to work in synergy with Abeli ​​sports routines . Each application after a gluteal muscle-building session:

  • Take advantage of opening pores for increased penetration
  • Stimulates microcirculation and accelerates skin regeneration
  • Enhances the visual effects of muscle tone

It thus becomes an extension of sport, a training of the skin itself .

Measured and felt results

  • +91% firmer skin (self-assessment after 3 weeks)
  • +84% perceived curve on the buttocks
  • +73% satisfaction on skin radiance and softness

Results observed as part of a Beauty B program + Abeli ​​personalized sports plan.

These two cures are:

Push Up & Push Up Boost Treatments

Abeli's Push Up and Push Up Boost Cures combine the proven effectiveness of kigelia africana with synergistic plant extracts to firm the buttocks , shape the hips and naturally sculpt the figure . Thanks to the Beauty B formulation and support from targeted muscle programs , these complete routines allow for a visible, rapid and lasting body transformation.

Association with targeted sport – amplify the push-up effect of kigelia

Kigelia africana , even in its most concentrated form, reaches its full potential when integrated into a holistic approach to the body. That's why Abeli ​​doesn't just offer a cosmetic solution with Beauty B : we combine it with targeted muscle programs designed to strengthen the curve, stimulate circulation and amplify the natural push-up result.

Why combine sport and plant-based cosmetics?

Muscle fibers and the dermis are closely linked. To stay plump and firm, toned skin must be supported by activated and oxygenated muscles. Exercise allows for:

  • Better blood circulation → better assimilation of active ingredients (including kigelia)
  • Activation of deep muscle areas → increased shape
  • A 100% natural, long-lasting and progressive lifting effect

The areas targeted by Abeli

The Abeli ​​gluteal programs , integrated into our mobile PDFs, precisely target the areas that respond best to the Kigelia + Muscle Building combination:

  • Middle and large glutes → upper curve
  • Side hips → harmonious rounding
  • Hamstrings → posterior curve support

These areas are where clients most often want to see a “push-up” effect.

Example of a weekly glute routine (without equipment)

3 sessions per week of 30 minutes, combined with the application of Beauty B treatment:

  • Monday : Squats (3×15), Glute Bridge (3×20), Donkey Kicks (3×15/side), Glute Plank (2×30s)
  • Wednesday : Alternating lunges (3×12/side), Sumo squats (3×15), Fire hydrants (3×15/side), Side plank
  • Friday : Circuit (2–3 rounds): Jump squats + Cross lunges + Unilateral bridges + Standing kickbacks

Before each session: warm-up + application of Beauty B on the buttocks After each session: hot shower + invigorating massage with Beauty B

When to apply Beauty B for maximum effect?

Timing is essential:

  • Before sport → promotes circulatory warm-up
  • After sport → penetrates deeper thanks to the opening of the pores
  • Evening → skin recovery and regeneration during sleep

Regular application, combined with exercise, helps maintain constant skin tension.

Customer testimonials: the sport + Beauty B combo

“I followed the Abeli ​​plan with squats and massages at Beauty B. My butt is higher, rounder. I can't believe it's natural.” — Justine, 24

“I thought push-up treatments didn't work, but with the exercises and the treatment, it's amazing. My skin is tightened, my curves are visible. And without going to the gym.” — Camille, 29 years old

Results reinforced through movement

An internal Abeli ​​study revealed that the combination of a Beauty B + sport routine allows:

  • +40% push-up results perceived by clients
  • +35% overall firmness of the buttocks measured at 4 weeks
  • +28% increased skin adhesion (less sagging)

Kigelia + targeted muscle building = increased effectiveness

To amplify the firming action of kigelia and Beauty B , targeted muscle activity on the glutes is key. By stimulating the skin from the inside (via the muscle) and the outside (via the treatment), Abeli ​​offers a natural dual push-up action that respects your body, your skin, and your rhythm. A lasting, clean, and visible solution—no surgery, no injections, no compromise.

Progressive & realistic results

Unlike injections or extreme solutions, the Abeli ​​approach is based on respecting the body's natural rhythm . The first effects appear in 10 to 14 days, but the real change is observed over 1 to 3 months:

  • Month 1 : firmness, skin density, feeling of tone

Consistency in application and commitment to movement are the keys.

  • Visible : from the first weeks

It is these progressive, lasting and body-friendly results that make Abeli ​​a trusted brand for women seeking shape, femininity and naturalness .

Usage protocols & daily routines with Beauty B

The effectiveness of kigelia africana in the Beauty B formula is based as much on its quality as on the regularity of its use . At Abeli , we have developed simple protocols, adapted to the reality of modern women: active, busy, but demanding when it comes to their well-being.

Typical morning/evening routine

Consistency is key. Here's the ideal routine to take full advantage of the firming and shaping effects of Beauty B:

  • The morning :
    • Apply 3 to 5 drops of Beauty B to each buttock and massage for 2 to 3 minutes in upward circles.
    • Wear a soft shaping or support garment (optional but recommended)
  • The evening :
    • After a (lukewarm) shower, reapply Beauty B to skin that is still warm.
    • Perform a slightly deeper massage or use a gentle suction cup (1 to 2 times/week)
    • Breathe deeply: skin regenerates during sleep

Strategic application: zones & gestures

Kigelia is most effective when applied to:

  • The upper buttocks → for a lifting effect
  • The external sides → for a rounded curve
  • The hollow under the buttocks → for tone and maintenance of the curve
  • Lower back and hips → to even out the silhouette

Upward massage is essential: always from bottom to top, with progressive pressure, to stimulate circulation and skin penetration.

Integration into an active week

A typical Abeli ​​client's schedule might look like this:

  • Monday : Buttocks session + Beauty B morning & evening
  • Tuesday : active recovery (walking or gentle stretching) + Beauty B
  • Wednesday : Buttocks session + Beauty B
  • Thursday : rest or light core strengthening + Beauty B
  • Friday : Buttocks session + Beauty B
  • Weekend : long massage (gentle suction cup or self-massage) + intense hydration

Additional nutritional advice

Firm, plump skin also depends on what you eat. To boost the effects of kigelia:

  • Consume 1.6–2g of protein/kg/day (eggs, chickpeas, lentils, oily fish)
  • Promote essential fatty acids (avocado, olive oil, flax seeds)
  • Drink 1.5 to 2 liters of water per day (water supports skin elasticity)
  • Limit refined sugar and ultra-processed products (they slow down collagen synthesis)

Recommended cycle length

For optimal and lasting results:

  • Minimum duration : 30 days
  • Optimal duration : 60 to 90 days
  • Rhythm : 2 Push Up treatments/year + 1 occasional Boost if needed

What not to do

  • Apply the treatment to dry, cold skin → less absorption
  • Massages that are too quick or neglected → reduction of the push-up effect
  • Stopping treatment too early → results are gradual, not instantaneous

Beauty B + kigelia protocol

The optimal protocol to take advantage of the kigelia africana contained in Beauty B is based on 3 pillars: regularity of application , strategic targeted areas and synergy with movement . With 2 applications per day, combined with simple muscle exercises and good nutrition, the push-up effects are visible, long-lasting and 100% natural.

FAQ, safety & long-term use of kigelia and Beauty B
