The webseries features the new over-the-counter (OTC) acne treatment Benzac® Acne Solutions, which combines tough acne fighting medicine with soothing East Indian Sandalwood Oil, to treat stubborn acne and unclog pores while preventing new breakouts from forming. |
| Filosofía | Debuting on the @BenzacAcne Instagram handle, the series – inspired by classic teen high schoolmovies – will air a total of 22 episodes over the course of three weeks. Viewers will be able to follow the angst, hilarity, breakups and breakouts of four teen archetypes – Ivy, Cam, Oak and Essy – who, like many teens, are dealing with a common enemy called acne.“The Benzacs” encourages teens to ditch the acne drama by providing entertaining content on aplatform where they are already engaging. More than three-quarters of teens use Instagram, the most popular social platform among this age group, and millennials spend an average of 439 minutes a month on the platform. Brought to life through a collaboration with Galderma’s advertising agency, Deutsch New York, Benzac Acne Solutions is among the first brands to create an Instagram-friendly webseries and the first webseries on Instagram to target teens specifically. “Benzac Acne Solutions aims to break the mold of traditional OTC acne marketing to reach the nearly 100% of teens who experience acne,” said Miles Harrison, VP & General Manager US Self Medication at Galderma. “As the most popular social platform for teens, Instagram was the ideal medium for this innovative webseries, which is one of the first on the platform to target teens. With relatable, entertaining content, Benzac’s webseries will engage and capture the imagination of our teen audience.” |
