Blue Cloud is the one most major breeders use ... I like it best ... breeders use it on their show chins, too ... it gives a beautiful cast to their fur.
Sented dust bath dust can cause a respiratory infection (that was probably me that misspelled it).
Infections in the lungs are almost always fatal, the lungs are so tiny.
Just checked my husband's brand he picked up at the store... 
Dang gone it...ANOTHER THING not worth using...it's SAND not dust...ARG~ 
If you check the package of dust bath that came with the dust bath house ... betcha it is dust bath sand, not dust bath dust ... that's probably why he thought it was OK.
I'm sure he was trying to be helpful and thinking of what he could get the chin to make up for the last screw up.
Got to love 'em ... they do mean well.
Dust bath sand is much to harsh for the chinchilla's fur.
Once I had a lady determined to have a chinchilla of her own, but she had c.o.p.d. The ONLY time I recommend the dust bath sand type, is if there is someone in the family with c.o.p.d. I first strongly suggest allowing the chin to use regular dust bath dust in a room in the house the person never goes into AND allowing the chin to play for a while (shedding most of the dust) before returning the chin to it's cage in the room it usually lives in all the time. Of course paper towels, shredded, help a little ... and cardboard play houses help some. Anything made from wood that is safe for a chinchilla that absorbs the natural oils is better than nothing and can be used ... but the dust bath dust (made from volcanic ash) is the best for the chinchilla.
