Why is Dust&Glow waterless ?

At Dust&Glow, we are proud to be a waterless beauty brand. Here are some reasons why:

  1. Environmental impact: Water is a precious resource that is often taken for granted. By going waterless, we can help reduce our impact on the environment by conserving water
  2. Less packaging therefore reduced carbon footprint: most beauty products contain 80% water. By removing the water, we are significantly reducing the need for packaging & reducing the weight of each product. Less packaging Less plastic, Less carbon footprint.
  3. Longer shelf life: Water-based products can have a shorter shelf life than those that are waterless. By eliminating water from our formulations, our products can have a longer shelf life without the need for harsh preservatives.
  4. More concentrated formulas: Our waterless products are more concentrated, meaning you need less product to achieve the same results as a water-based product. On average 1 Dust&Glow is the equivalent to 3x liquid alternatives.
  5. Portability: Waterless products are perfect for on-the-go use, as they don't require water to apply or remove. This makes them ideal for travel or for use during outdoor activities.

Overall, being a waterless brand is a part of our commitment to creating high-quality, sustainable products that are better for you and the planet.

Why is Dust&Glow in a powder form instead of liquid or solid bars

At Dust&Glow, we specialize in creating powder-based beauty products that offer several advantages over liquid products or solid bars. Here are some of the benefits of powder-based beauty:

  1. Longer shelf life: Our innovative skin, hair and body powders have generally have a longer shelf life compared to liquid shampoos, as they are less likely to harbor bacteria or other microorganisms.
  2. Customizable usage: Our powder shampoo, or powder face cleansers can be easily adjusted to suit your hair or skin needs. You can use a small amount of powder for a gentle cleanse or more powder for a deeper clean, depending on your hair type and desired results.
  3. It works: Our powder shampoo, conditioner or facial cleansers are packed with natural ingredients and deliver real results. No need to compromise on quality.
  4. Less packaging : Our powder-based formulas are packaged in a compact, lightweight and refillable aluminum bottle making them a more sustainable alternative to liquid shampoos that often come in plastic bottles.
  5. Travel-friendly: Our water-free range is easy to transport, carry-on friendly, and can be used on the go. You don't require a special container , soggy bars, or bulky leaky bottles. This makes it ideal for travel or for use during outdoor activities.

What is Dust&Glow bottle made of?

  2. Durable: Aluminum is a strong and durable material that can withstand wear and tear, ensuring that your product stays safe and secure.
  3. Recyclable: Aluminum is one of the most widely recycled materials in the world, meaning that it can be repurposed into new products, reducing waste and conserving resource

The full range is also available in refills. Our certified home compostable pouches are made from plant-based materials that break down naturally in a home composting environment, reducing waste and helping to create a more sustainable future.

Where do you store your Dust&Glow powders

Designed for In-Shower Use:

Our Dust&Glow powders are perfect for your in-shower beauty routine. To store them, simply keep the outer lid on and place the bottles in your bathroom or shower. The specially designed lid protects the powders from clumping or getting wet. You'll love the sleek aluminum bottles that won't rust or break, adding a touch of elegance to your bathroom.

Prevent Direct Water Flow:

For prolonged freshness, avoid direct water exposure. Storing your bottles away from direct water flow helps maintain the powders' quality.

Top 5 Storage Options:

  1. Built-in Shower Niche or Cavity: Utilise your shower's built-in niche or cavity to securely store your Dust&Glow powders. These small recesses keep your powders dry and easily accessible during your shower routine.
  2. Additional Shelf ("Shelfie"): Enhance your shower setup with a waterproof shelf like the Block Dock's "shelfie." Ideal for those without built-in storage, it keeps your powders dry and organized away from water.
  3. Shower Floor: If convenience is key, placing your powders on the shower floor in a water-free zone, such as a corner, ensures easy access without compromising their quality.
  4. Bathroom Vanity: Opt for a bathroom vanity shelf or drawer to store your powders outside the shower. Perfect for those who prefer separate storage and a clutter-free shower.
  5. Cosmetic Bag for On-the-Go: Travel or hit the gym with your Dust&Glow powders in a cute, protective cosmetic bag. This option keeps your powders dry and ready for use wherever you go.

Storing your Dust&Glow powders is a breeze with these practical tips.
