EVERQ Turns Skincare Anxiety Into A Twelve-Episode Comedy

Ad Tribe! Bureau1 min read
The EVERQ and Puresta brand lockup, for the launch of the So Dermatic microdrama series

EVERQ has launched So Dermatic, a 12-episode microdrama that turns everyday skincare beliefs and anxieties into short comic episodes. The series runs on the brand's own Instagram.

  • Brand: EVERQ, a personalised skin health platform from Puresta
  • Format: a microdrama, a short-form fictional series, in 12 episodes
  • Where: EVERQ's official Instagram
  • Setting: an EVERQ dermatology clinic, with recurring characters including a dermatologist, a receptionist, a Gen Z intern and a cleaning lady
  • Subjects: home remedies, social media hacks, late-night searches, AI-generated advice, filters and the belief that drinking more water fixes everything
  • Episode titles include: Mummy Alert, Mehnat ka Pimple, The AI-dentity Crisis, Farm to Face, Jal Lijiye and Acne Ki Supari

What EVERQ Is Making Instead Of Advertising

A fictional world rather than a product story. The series does not build itself around routines, ingredients or an idealised face; it takes the things Indian consumers already believe about their skin and plays them for comedy, with characters who recur across episodes.

Hitaysh Dhingraa, co-founder and chief executive of Puresta, said skincare has moved beyond the traditional beauty aisle, and that people discover, discuss and debate it through reels, creators, search, AI, family advice and entertainment. With So Dermatic, he said, the company is creating entertainment around conversations people are already having about their skin.

Why The Format Is Interesting

Because it commits to length. A single branded film asks for thirty seconds once; twelve episodes ask a viewer to come back, which only works if the writing carries it. The episode titles suggest the series knows it is competing with entertainment rather than with other skincare ads, which is the right assumption for the platform it is on.

No agency credits have been announced.
