Clinical Formula Corrective Grains | BP Acne Scrub
Couldn't load pickup availability
The gentler, daily-use BP scrub for skin that wants exfoliation without the burn.
Clinical Formula Corrective Grains is the softer sibling of the Pumice Cleanser — same 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, but with finer almond meal and polyethylene grains plus aloe vera and allantoin to keep the formula tolerable for daily use. Best for clients who want daily BP exfoliation without the more intense scrub action of the pumice version.
Why people reach for it
Identical benzoyl peroxide concentration as the Pumice Cleanser, paired with finer almond meal and polyethylene grains for daily-use friendliness.
Aloe vera and allantoin reduce the irritation BP can cause — keeps daily BP use sustainable for sensitive or reactive skin.
Natural almond grains lift dead cells while delivering vitamin E antioxidant — a softer alternative to the pumice grains in the standard cleanser.
Designed for once-to-twice daily use as a complete acne cleanse-and-scrub in one step. Most clients use this as their everyday cleanser.
Who it's for
For acne-prone skin that wants daily BP without harsh exfoliation:
Why it works
Same clinical-grade acne active as the Pumice Cleanser — kills C. acnes bacteria and clears pores.
A natural exfoliant that lifts dead cells and delivers vitamin E antioxidant — softer and more skin-conditioning than synthetic scrub grains.
Soothes irritation, calms redness, and keeps the cleanser tolerable for daily use — important counterbalance to BP.
A barrier-soothing botanical that reduces visible irritation and supports healing of post-acne marks.

Common questions
How is this different from the Pumice Cleanser?
Same 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, different exfoliant. The Pumice Cleanser uses cellulose acetate pumice (more intensive scrub feel); the Corrective Grains uses fine almond meal + polyethylene grains plus aloe and allantoin (gentler, daily-friendly). Most clients pick one based on how their skin reacts — sensitive skin tends to do better with Corrective Grains.
Can I use both?
Yes — many clients alternate. Use Corrective Grains in the morning for daily mild exfoliation, and the Pumice Cleanser at night for a deeper scrub a few times a week.
Will it bleach my towels and sheets?
Yes — benzoyl peroxide bleaches fabric. Use white towels and pillowcases, or rinse and dry skin completely before contact.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
More tolerable than most BP cleansers thanks to the aloe and allantoin, but BP can be drying for everyone. Start once daily and slowly increase if your skin can handle it.
Can I use it with retinol?
Yes — most providers recommend BP in the morning and retinol at night. Same-day stacking is OK once your skin is acclimated.
Is it pregnancy-safe?
Topical BP is generally considered low-risk during pregnancy, but verify with your OB or dermatologist before continuing through pregnancy.
