Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Telegram for the latest stories and breaking news. 

This Spotlight is sponsored by Watsons. 

One way they're celebrating is by getting three remarkable Malaysian women to encourage all women to love and care for themselves, no matter their skin colour, body size, and ethnicity.

The three women are:
- Sonya Danita Charles, model and founder of Vitiligo Association Malaysia, is a body positivity activist who loves fashion
- Lim Xin Yu, founder of Asli Co, helps indigenous mothers earn a sustainable living
- Nur Azlia Syafinaz Mohd Zais, a national para cyclist ace

These women will talk about the definition of beauty and encourage you to be your own true self, and not anyone else.

Here's a look at the video:

By making an effort to care for yourself, both physically and mentally, you'll find that it's so much easier to be confident in your own skin. After all, your body and mind deserve attention too. That's why this month — in conjunction with International Women's Day — Watsons is daring you to take up the challenge! :D

Watsons shares that the secret to having good skin is by... *drum rolls* staying hydrated! Make sure to drink at least eight cups of water a day. If you're busy, try setting reminders to drink water throughout the day. 

Another simple tip for taking good care of your skin is to understand your skin type and needs, as everyone's skin is different and reacts to certain skincare products differently. While you're at it, Watsons recommends adding NH Colla Plus Advance or Alia White'N Colla+Gen to your skincare routine, as it provides you with a fuss-free solution to glorious skin.

Another recommended product is BioOil Skincare Oil, which helps to improve the appearance of stretch marks, scars, and uneven skin tone, as well as retain moisture to combat ageing and dehydrated skin. 

This means watching what you eat and drink. Try to limit late-night snacks and sweet drinks, while incorporating more vegetables and fruits into your diet.

Exercising regularly is important too. A tip from Watsons is to sweat it out at your own pace at least three to four times a week. According to the brand, this will instantly improve your brain health, reduce the risk of diseases, strengthen bones and muscles, enhance your endurance, and help you watch your weight.  

And to ensure you have sufficient energy for the day or before a workout, Watsons recommends consuming CelebritySlim Rapid Shake, which contains a good amount of protein and other nutrients for energy. 

It's essential that you meet your daily vitamin and nutrient intake. Watsons recommends consuming Redoxon Double Action Vitamin C + Zinc as well as Vitahealth EPA Fish Oil, both of which contain the necessary vitamins and nutrients required for your body.

A healthy bowel movement is also important too. Supplements like Brands Inner Shine Prune Essence are great, as they are high in fibre, allowing for smooth bowel movement and a healthy digestive system.

Don't forget to care for your wellbeing too! Watsons shares that regular meditation helps to clear the mind and relieve stress, allowing you to improve your wellbeing and overall productivity. 

Happening in front of Royal Selangor on Ground Floor, Centre Court, AND in front of SMIGGLE at LG Oval Concourse, Watsons will be organising the Super Sale Super Women's Day to celebrate all women!
