Targeted butt + thigh care
Buns of Steel® is a targeted firming cream for the glutes, hips and thighs — formulated with 4% Intenslim™ to support smoother-looking skin and a firmer, more toned appearance where texture and dimpling show most.
The gap
Cellulite is influenced by connective tissue, skin firmness and the shape underneath — not simply body fat or how hard you train.
Fibrous bands connect the skin to the tissue underneath. The way fat and connective tissue interact can create the uneven surface we recognize as dimpling.
When skin becomes thinner or less elastic, the structures underneath can become more visible. Hormones, age and changes in body composition can all influence how the surface looks.
Building the glutes and hamstrings can improve the shape beneath the skin. It will not remove cellulite, but more muscle can help the area appear stronger, fuller and more defined.
BUILT AROUND YOUR BODY
Your priorities may change with your training, weight, hormones and stage of life. Choose the situation that sounds most like you for a more tailored routine.
Individual experiences vary. Timelines reflect consistent use and are not guaranteed results.
Worth saying out loud
Most women have cellulite. It appears on athletes, younger women and people at every body size. Having it does not mean you have failed—and wanting your skin to look smoother does not make you vain.
What the research actually says
Disclaimer: Buns of Steel® is a cosmetic topical designed to support smoother, firmer-looking skin. It does not permanently remove cellulite or change the underlying anatomy.
The Straight answer
Most creams promise things no topical can deliver. Here’s the truth: Buns of Steel® supports how the skin looks and feels — it does not replace the work happening underneath it.
What's inside
The formula combines 4% Intenslim™ with targeted firming, smoothing and exfoliating ingredients for the glutes, hips and thighs.
Intenslim is a specialized active designed to help reduce the visible signs of cellulite and improve skin firmness. It works to target fat storage areas, promoting a more sculpted and contoured appearance.
This botanical extract helps protect the skin from environmental stressors and supports a more even, youthful appearance. It promotes a healthy skin barrier and a smoother look and feel.
Zerumbet, derived from ginger flower, helps stimulate circulation and supports firm, toned skin. It’s often used in body-contouring formulas to help smooth the appearance of cellulite.
Keratoline is an enzymatic exfoliant that helps smooth and soften the skin’s surface. By gently removing dead skin cells, it allows active ingredients to penetrate more effectively and enhances overall skin texture.
Caffeine is a natural stimulant that helps increase circulation and support the breakdown of stored fat beneath the skin’s surface. When applied topically, it can help tighten and firm the appearance of the skin, giving it a smoother and more toned look. It’s a key ingredient in targeted firming products because it delivers fast-acting, visible results.
Regestril is a clinically studied complex that helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks and improves skin smoothness. It works by supporting skin regeneration, helping to restore firmness and resilience over time.
How to use
Apply consistently twice daily. The clinically studied research behind Intenslim™ evaluated two months of use, so think of this as a body-care routine — not an overnight fix.
