About MaxClarity™ Foam

See drug facts about MaxClarity Foam.
Q. I live in a really sunny climate – is MaxClarity Foam safe?
A. MaxClarity Foam is safe to use, but note that it does contain Benzoyl Peroxide, an ingredient that can cause your skin to be sensitive to the
sun’s rays. Try to limit sun exposure as best as you can and always use a sunscreen with at least an SPF 15 rating.
Q. Is MaxClarity Foam safe for teenagers?
A. Yes. But for children under 12, check with your Heath Care Provider.
Q. Can the MaxClarity Foam System be used on all skin types and ethnicities?
A. Yes. The MaxClarity Foam System is gentle, non-irritating and effective for all skin types and ethnicities.
Using MaxClarity™ Foam
Q. How do I use MaxClarity Foam™?
A. Here’s how it works:
Morning
Step 1: Start your day with the luxurious Deep Cleanser wash-off foam for intense yet gentle deep cleaning. The Deep Cleanser works not only on your face, but can also be used on your chest and back- and pretty much everywhere else you have acne! Just wet the area of skin you want cleaned, and give the Deep Cleanser can a good shake before using. Apply a small amount (grape size) of foam to your skin, and massage for about 1 to 2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Step 2: The last step in your morning acne routine is to apply the Advanced Acne Treatment leave-on foam. Grab the can and give it a good shake before using. Apply a small amount (grape size) to your skin, using your fingers to cover the entire affected area with a thin layer. This lightweight leave-on foam dries quickly so you can apply sunscreen, moisturizer, or makeup....and get on with your day! For invisible acne fighting and prevention, Advanced Acne Treatment foam does the trick!
Evening
Step 1: Before you hit the sheets, cleanse your face with the Deep Cleanser wash-off foam. Just wet the area of skin you want cleaned, and give the Deep Cleanser can a good shake before using. Apply a small amount (grape size) of foam to your skin, and massage for about 1 to 2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Step 2: Finish up with the Rejuvenating Toner leave-on foam. Using the toner is a must for fighting acne, because it exfoliates away dead skin cells and penetrates pores to help prevent future breakouts. After you've applied the Deep Cleanser and your skin is dry, shake the Rejuvenating Toner can and apply a small amount (grape size) to your skin. Use your fingers to spread the foam over the entire affected area, allowing the toner to dry.
Q. Will MaxClarity Foam work on my whole body, too?
A. Yes. The MaxClarity Foam Deep Cleanser is powerful and effective enough for acne, wherever it is. Plus, VersaFoam® is easy to apply to hard-to-reach areas.
Q. Can I wear makeup while using MaxClarity Foam?
A. Yes. The MaxClarity Foam Advanced Acne Treatment dries quickly so you can start applying moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup soon after.
Q. What happens if MaxClarity Foam makes my skin dry?
A. While MaxClarity has been proven to be non-irritating, everyone's skin type is different. If irritation or sensitivity develops, discontinue use of both products and consult a doctor.

Q. When will I see results?
A. Every person’s skin and lifestyles are unique, so results can vary. However, the results many MaxClarity Foam users see in as little as two weeks can be
dramatic. Click here to see Before and After results.

Control your acne
Q. Other than using MaxClarity Foam every day, what else can I do to get clear skin?
A. Since many different things contribute to acne flare-ups (stress, climate, hormones, etc.), the first thing you can control is a daily skin care regimen like MaxClarity Foam. You
can also sleep on clean sheets, wear breathable fabrics, avoid leaning into your cell phone, and try not to touch your face
unnecessarily. Click here for more tips about acne control.
