Pros:

works

Cons:

sometimes runs out before you get more...just need to learn how much to apply

first off, I think its funny when people that have only been using products for a few days or even a few weeks think their review should recieve some weight. Acne starts much below the skin, and can take a month to reach the surface, if not longer sometimes. Thats why it is always recommended to use a product 8-10 weeks before drawing any conclusions. Anyways, I am 21. Ive had moderate acne for 6 or 7 years. Ive tried many things, and nothing really helped besides retin a. I finally tried maxclarity. Ive been using it for nearly 3 months. It is the only thing that has given me clear skin since I tried retin a when I was 18. I took 2 months to work. I still get the occasional breakout, but I have not been this clear on such a consistent basis for YEARS.. Im glad I finally found an OTC product that works and doesnt give you terrible side effects or an bad IB like retin a causes in some people. I love this product. ITs gentel on the skin too.

Pros:

starting price

Cons:

price goes up
dispenser broke
does not last a month
difficult to return
break outs where there were none before

Seemed ok the first 2 weeks. After that breakouts began to occur where none existed before. Customer service made it very difficult to return. New package was sent before trial period was over at $15 more than original price and they make you pay shipping to return something you didn't ask for.

Keeps your skin clear.
Easy to use.

MaxClarity is a great acne solution.It is just that there is more foam in the can that does not come out!!!!

Pros:

Easy to use
Left skin so soft
Saw results quickly

Cons:

Foam cans can be defective

I received this product about eight weeks ago or more and was very skeptical of the product. I am happy to say that I am more than pleased with this product. I use more than the recommended amount of product religiously every morning and night, and witnessed results within the first four weeks. My skin has never felt softer and for the most part is clear. I went from having a dozen to two dozen blemishes/cysts/white heads to currently having 1! I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has a problem with acne. I used to dread going to work with these "things" all over my face, I would cake on layers of make up, and now I can leave the house without any foundation and concealer. I wish I could show you a before and after picture to demonstrate the difference this product has made. I feel more confident and happy with myself and I think others should try it as well!! =)

Pros:

The system is simple and easy to use.

Cons:

Dries out skin. Horrible customer service. Ruined my towels

It does not work. My acne cleared a little bit for the first two weeks, then it got worse. I started getting at least two new pimples a day, huge ones that would turn into white heads (I usually don't get this type of acne). They were so embarassing, I couldn't even cover it with make up. MaxClarity advertises "NO IRRIATION" but it totally dried out my skin and left my face super flakey. Also, I don't know what's in that stuff, but it completely ruined my towel with bleach stains all over it. So if you try MaxClarity, be sure to dry your face with a white towel, but I strongly do not reccommend this product!

Pros:

clears skin fast, love the foam system, best acne system i have ever used by far!!

Cons:

the 3 oz bottles aren't big enough to last the 60 day, more like 1 month supply.

I absolutely love maxclarity! I have tried almost everything out there and this is the best i have came across. I used Proactiv for about a year prior to finding out about Maxclarity and it never made my skin look as good as Maxclarity has. I noticed results within 2 wks of using Maxclarity. You do need to use it as it says in the morning and at night though....but I Highly recommand it and will never use any other acne line! =)

Cons:

worst product ever!

Ever since using this product, acne problem got worst. On top of that they sent next item even before the next item delivery day. I didn't even have full 60 days of trial period as they promised - only about 30days or so. To receive the credit, I had to call several times again and again and the rep told me some $ amount, but I received much less than the promised amount. The rep. doesn't even know what they're talking about. Don't waste your time and money. This is worst company I've ever dealt with.

Pros:

continuous use keeps your skin clear
face feels smooth after
foam is GREAT
cheap
comes with a body wash for the shower as well as a face one
only 2 steps morning and night

Cons:

drys face a little
customer service people are annoying

i've tried a lot of acne products that dont work (Proactiv, random acne washes like neutrogena and such) and i finally decided to try maxclarity. it works great for me and when i use it consistently my skin is clear all the time. best things about it are the foam aspect and the fact that it comes with a body wash because i had acne on my chest and back too so this was a really good unique feature compared to others. the foam is great beacuse it is way easier to put on than cream like other products and it absorbs into the skin so you dont look oily or your face doesnt feel oily if you touch it. plus like i said i put it on my chest and back so it is MUCH easier to do with a foam than a cream. i used to have bad acne on my face, chest, and back, but now it consistently and my skin is always clear and almost totally free of acne

Pros:

* Cheap
* Easy to use
* Great Customer Service
* CHEAP! ;)

Cons:

* Takes a long time to ship
* Cleanser runs out too quickly
* Dries out skin

I have tried Everything from OTC to expensive laser treatments and topical creams/ gels. I had clear skin in high school and started breaking out in college. I had acne for the past 12 years! It was sooo bad at one point I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror. I was so depressed and my whole mood depended on the clarity of my skin. Acne was controlling my life. The laser treatments and Retin A helped in the beginning but my skin was getting immune to the treatments and I was spending a fortune on doctor visits! I tried MaxClarity with not much hope left. It works GREAT and controlled my oily skin. I usually get big cystic pimples on the lower part of my face. Max Clarity helped considerably and I no longer get cystic painful acne. I do get whiteheads here and there and smaller pimples, BUT it's nothing compared to how bad my face was before Maxclarity. Everyone's skin is different, but you definitely should give MaxClarity a try. There is NO miracle remedy for acne! Accept and treat it!

Pros:

Foam goes on quick and easy, comfortable.
Cheap

Cons:

Leaves your skin shiney.
Stops working after about 2 weeks, then acne comes back stronger.
Customer Service is terrible...

Do not buy this product. It stops working after the first 2 weeks, and their customer service reps are ridiculous and wont take no for an answer... Bottom line, this product does not work!!!
