A: It means you cleaned the dust off of the object.

A: Whenever you fail at something, you should dust yourself off and try again!

A: "Dust" can be used as a noun or a verb, for example,

"There's dust on these books."

"Please mop the floors and dust the shelves."

A: Dust = a chore you do. "I'm dusting the house today."

Dust off = brush the dust/crumbs away from an object you're probably going to use right away (usually with your hand, or maybe a cloth.) "I dusted off my old weight lifting set after Christmas to lose the holiday weight."

More examples:

A: Powder refers to particles produced by grinding any solid substance.
Dust is the same as powder, but it is only used to refer to earth or waste matter.

A: dust is small particles of dirt and other things and ash is a powder that is left over after something has been burning, like if you burnt a paper and there is grey/black stuff left over that is ash. and dust is the stuff that collects on furniture that you have to wipe off.

A: The two words are often interchangeable. But I think powder is more general, and dust is more specific.

So, all dust is powder, but not all powder is dust.

Usually, dust comes from natural sources, or it forms/accumulates naturally, without intention. I can't really "make" dust deliberately.

But I can make powder. Powder can be natural (e.g. dust) or artificial (e.g. baby powder, cocaine, etc.).

I would say that it's "pixie dust" because it's something naturally produced by the pixies. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm guessing they don't have a recipe or factories for producing the dust – they just generate it magically.

Dust often has negative connotations, but not always. For example, gold dust, dust from spices, etc. are more positive.

A: They mean roughly the same thing, but the uses are mostly contextual and idiomatic. "Dust" often seems to be something that is naturally occurring, while "powder" tends to relate to man-made products.

Examples:
"He returned home after three weeks to find a layer of dust all over his furniture." "There are dust storms out in the desert; we had dust sucked into our car's engine."
"The astronauts brought back samples of lunar dust."
"The carpenters left saw dust all over the floor."

"They ground the minerals to a fine powder"
"The recipe calls for 30g of curry powder"
"The pastry chef sprinkled powdered sugar on top of the cookies."
"Gun powder was used in early explosives."
