It can be said that, sometimes, our biggest enemy is ourselves

This is especially true when it comes to doing things we're not yet familiar with, be it cycling and other sporty activities, taking on a new responsibility at work, or simply enjoying a new hobby with a bestie.

For many, it's easy to get self-conscious, allowing self-doubt to sneakily creep up and not only throw us off our game, but also spook us from trying things we may find enjoyable.

Drawing on her personal experience, Malaysian gymnast Farah Ann aims to encourage everyone to move beyond their limits through a short film called #RexonaMoveBrightNow

Rexona is a firm believer that the power of movement can transform lives, regardless of who you are or how you move. As long as you keep trying, you're already halfway there, amirite?

According to Rexona, nothing should ever hold us back because every move we make is a bright move. Serving as an inspiration, Farah Ann, who's the new face of the brand, gives Malaysians a glimpse into how she navigates instances of self doubt. 

Watch the #RexonaMoveBrightNow short film below:

As a national artistic gymnast, Farah Ann's many accomplishments speak for themselves

Naturally, all that success does not come without some major challenges

Like many of us, Farah's inner critic can be harsh, but by breaking down the goal into bite-sized pieces, and taking it one step at a time, she manages to push through all the noise

In the end, Farah proves that to get to success, even the best of us must coach ourselves to ignore the doubting voices in our head

On top of Farah's story, Rexona wants to give you the confidence to push yourself every day, by keeping your underarms fresh and bright with its new Advanced Brightening Japanese Sakura & French Rose deodorant variants

Wanna bid goodbye to dark underarms? A Vitamin E-Revive Booster made from sunflower seed oil is the key ingredient that sets these deodorants apart from others.

Reducing dark underarms up to three times* (thanks to the Vitamin E Revive booster), the Rexona Advanced Brightening Japanese Sakura and French Rose deodorants are formulated to leave you with fresher and naturally brighter underarms in just five days*.

They are dermatologically-tested, contain 0% alcohol, and provide 48 hours of sweat and odour protection, which means all you need to worry about is which scent you want to pick. ;D

You can buy Rexona, the world's number one deodorant**, in-store or online via Watsons.

*Based on clinical tests.
