Aczone Gel 7.5%, an FDA-approved topical acne treatment, is highlighted for its unusual potential side effects. Clinical warnings indicate the drug can cause methemoglobinemia, which decreases blood oxygen and turns nails or lips blue. Additionally, the use of benzoyl peroxide alongside the gel may temporarily turn skin or facial hair orange.
Adam Curry analyzes the sociology of a Proactiv acne treatment advertisement, focusing on the "youthful happiness" of the voiceover performance. He parodies the ad's style to promote the No Agenda Show. The hosts discuss the successful marketing of Proactiv to teenagers and the psychological "hook" of skincare products that claim to provide a "liberating" feeling of clear skin.
