launched.
• For Allergan, that means heavy use of social media channels like Facebook, Instagram and
Twitter; partnering with celebrities; and incorporating interactive elements to the campaign’s
online platform. Those elements include facial recognition software that assigns users emojis
based on their facial expressions, which they can then share with their friends.
