Pros:

Not expensive. The foam regimen is easy to follow because its nothing elaborate. I think its working. I have acne scars all over my face from since about 13 years. I've tried everything there is on the market including expensive trips to the dermatologist. Maxclarity seems to be working better than any of them. I've been using it now for about 3 weeks regularly and my face is clearing up! the blemishes/scars seem to be fading as well. So far no breakouts!

Cons:

Dries up my skin bad! I have to use a moisturizer about 4 times after each time that I use the product. I think I have a small chemical burn on either corner of my lips because the acne treatment foam is a little strong, but since the rest of my face seems to clearing up fast, I won't stop using it. I just make sure I don't apply the product to that area. The nozzles of the bottles take a while to get used to to dispense just a little amount of the foam.

I have moderate to severe acne which gets worse around my period. Right now after about 3 weeks of using the product, my face seems remarkably clearer than before. I only want to wait till my next period and see if I have another breakout. If I do, I'll know the problem is purely hormonal. I'm also avoiding all fatty food and eating a lot of vegetables and fruits which I'm sure is helping! I would say, try it once for about 2-3 weeks. Everyone responds differently to each product. This just may be the one for you! This product I think would work even better on people who have mild acne but prominent scarring and blemishes. Try it once.

Pros:

clears up skin fast
easy to use

Cons:

bottles break
doesnt last a month
drys out skin

This producted works. First week my skin started clearing up a lot. It felt smooth and looked great. Second week I had no acne at all, but third week i broke out again. Fourth week i started clearing up again, but two of my three bottles broke and my skin became dependent to max clarity and now im breaking out again. the bottles wont last a month and they break easily. The BP helps out so much just use a moisturizer because it can dry out your skin. I'm continuing to use this product and planning on ordering again

Works but then stops working
Makes skin a bit irritated
Defective Cans

I tried this at first it seemed to be working so I continued.. after one month it stopped working on my skin and so it did nothing, my acne didnt get worse nor better it was just making my skin a bit irritated... and shiny. So I stopped. Things work for some and don't work for others. This didnt work for me.

Pros:

clears acne
softens skin
it works
doesn't dry
light foam

Cons:

delivery program
cans can break

overall i like this product. it did help me. i did not get random blemishes and breakouts. however the supply they give you does not last long enough. it did not dry out my skin which is a major issue that i have with most non foam cleansers. however, they don't supply enough of the cleansing foam. though this is mainly because it is an infomercial product. i decided not to continue using it just because of they did not send enough of the product and then i would have too much of the toner and treatment and not enough of the cleanser.

Pros:

No Pros on this product!!! It sucks!!

Cons:

No customer service!!
Product does not work!!
False advertisment!!
Dry and flakey on your face!!
Half way through the can stops working!!

Please beware. I recently ordered this product thinking that this would be the end to all my acne problems. According to the commericals I was very influenced to order so I did. As soon as I received the product I immediately began using it. I have yet to see any results!!! As a matter of fact this product break me out even more. The first week I got new huge white heads and pimples on my face and neck as a results of using the product and it has not cleared up the old acne. I said I would try it another week maybe it will work, but no the same thing. Now my face looks even worse than it did before I started using the product. I hate that I ever even started using this mess. So, like anyone else I called customer service to my surprise the paper work that came with my order listed the incorrect number. Everytime I called it would say your call can not be completed as dailed. So, I went on the interent and obtain a different customer service number. I was kept on hold so long. I just hung up and took matters in my own hands. I was enrolled in the autoship program, but I hadn't used the product 30 days yet, so I knew they would try to charge my credit card again, so I called my bank reported it lost, and got a new card with a new number. Dumb fools will not charge me again for this mess. As far as the 30 money back I will just count my lost because the hassle of trying to get my $26 dollars back is not worth it. So disgusted and angry!!! I know different product work different for different skin types, but this is outrageous!!!!

Pros:

Relatively inexpensive
Tiemly shipping

Cons:

Poor customer service
The bottles stop funtioning with half the contents in it
The night foam is extremely drying
Very difficult to cancel the order
The wash finishes long before the other 2 products
Like EVERY acne product i have ever used, it worked for about 3 months and then stopped working

Max clarity foam has been very disappointing. It is like all the other infomercials that make huge promises with slick ads but just doesnt deliver. It stopped working just like Proactiv. But proactiv was gentler on the skin and left my skin in better condition

Pros:

Cleard skin for the first week

Cons:

After the first week or so the skin dried
Acne got worse after the first couple of weeks
If you don't get the every month plan, it's 40 bucks!

Is I wouldn't use this product ever again! I thought it work like a charm, the drying of my skin was horrendoues! I looked like I got a really bad sun burn and my skin was peeling! My acne got worse when I woulnd't use Max Clarity for a day a two, so my acne never got a chance to clear up and leave my skin!

Pros:

none

Cons:

terrible customer support

I wanted to like this product. It was easy to use and seemed effective for the first month I used it. Then the foam dispensers malfunctioned,instead of foam,it turned to liquid,and sometimes nothing at all. I called customer service and they seemed to think it was my fault and wouldn't fess up that other folks were having the same problem. Eventually they shut down their website and now they say the problem is fixed. But wouldn't you think the company would have notified their former customers and try to make it right with them. The product isn't exactly cheap and I can't remember how many bottles I had to send back,only to have the replacements fail. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!
