Supply Chain
Our Banana powder is sustainably and ethically sourced in Australia and made from bananas that would otherwise be considered waste and unsellable.
With the planet, its plants, animals and people front of mind, our native extracts supplier has always placed a strong focus on empowering Indigenous communities and the continual advancement and improvement of sustainable and ethical practices.

Palm Free
The production of most palm oil and its derivatives contributes to the destruction of rainforests and the habitats of endangered animals through rapid deforestation. The large-scale destruction of rainforests is also releasing significant quantities of carbon pollution into the atmosphere, making palm oil a major global driver of human-induced climate change.

Packaging
Cleanse Dust is packaged in glass and bamboo with labels made for Bagasse (sugarcane waste). In production, Bagasse has a lower carbon footprint than wood pulp, lowering pollution and preserving forest ecosystems.
FAQs
Why a powdered cleanser?
For one, you can take it on the plane! Convenience aside, a powdered face cleanser is waterless so its actives remain potent and undiluted - it's customisable to your own skin's needs. Add as little or as much water as you like to get the perfect exfoliation intensity, and trust that it'll last longer than you expect!
Is Cleanse Dust Powdered Cleanser pH balanced?
When in a powder form Cleanse Dust doesn’t have a pH, but when mixed with water, the product has a skin friendly pH 6-7.
What product can I use after a cleanser?
After cleansing use a toner and follow up with serums, eye cream then a moisturise or oils.
Vegan + cruelty-free?
We love our furry friends, so we only test on human butts. You will find nothing derived from animals or by-products of animals (eg beeswax, lanolin, milk) Not only that, we donate 5% of profits to Melbourne no-kill animal shelter Save a Dog Scheme.
