Dust&Glow’s waterless revolution.
Water scarcity and plastic pollution have become critical global issues that demand immediate attention.
With approximately 2.2 billion people lacking access to clean drinking water and plastic packaging from the cosmetics industry reaching a staggering 120 billion items annually, it is evident that change is needed.
Enter Dust&Glow, an eco-conscious beauty brand that is revolutionising the industry with its innovative waterless beauty range. By eliminating water from their formulations, Dust&Glow have reimagined beauty in a powder form that offers numerous benefits for the environment.
Traditional beauty products typically contain 80-95 per cent water, contributing to the excessive water consumption and waste associated with the industry. Dust&Glow’s powder-based products provide effective results without compromising on quality, all while significantly reducing water waste and carbon emissions.
Water scarcity is a pressing concern that affects over 40 per cent of the global population, and this number is projected to rise due to population growth and climate change.
Women and girls, in particular, bear the burden of water collection in 80 per cent of households without access to water on premises, with African women spending a staggering 40 billion hours per year walking for water. It is essential that we make a change to conserve water and explore sustainable alternatives in various industries, including beauty.
Dust&Glow recognises the severity of this issue and aims to make a difference. In a remarkable display of commitment, the eco-conscious brand donates one per cent of gross sales to charity, supporting their mission of providing clean and safe drinking water to communities in need.
In comparison to traditional liquid alternatives and solid bars, Dust&Glow’s beauty powder format reduces the need for plastic packaging and with powder products often having a longer shelf life, this is a great sustainable and practical choice for eco-conscious consumers.
Sustainability also lies at the core of Dust&Glow’s practices. They have implemented refillable aluminium bottles and home compostable refills, drastically reducing single-use plastic waste.
By eliminating water and preservatives from their products, Dust&Glow takes an eco-friendly approach, ensuring that their formulations are gentle, free from harsh chemicals, preservatives, and fragrances, all while giving you a natural and beautiful glow.
Dust&Glow’s brand values are rooted in environmental consciousness and consumer satisfaction. As a certified vegan and cruelty-free brand by PETA, Dust&Glow offers clean, potent formulas that are proudly made in New Zealand. Their products are soap-free and sulphate-free, providing a gentle formulation suitable for a wide range of individuals. Economical in usage, each Dust&Glow product offers up to 65 usages, equivalent to three bottles of liquid shampoo!
Plastic pollution exacerbates environmental degradation, with the cosmetics industry alone producing more than 120 billion plastic packaging items annually. Shockingly, only nine per cent of plastic waste globally is recycled, leaving the majority to end up in landfills or pollute natural environments. Dust&Glow takes this issue seriously and has implemented sustainable practices to reduce plastic waste.
Dust&Glow’s plastic-free, endlessly recyclable aluminium bottles that can be easily refilled, and their range of facial cleansers, haircare, and body wash products all come in a dry, powder form, encapsulating the brand’s mission to reimagine beauty.
