Why is it masculine?
Polvos is masculine because it descends from Latin "pulvis" (dust), which was a second-declension masculine noun in Latin, and Spanish inherited this grammatical gender when the word evolved phonetically. The Latin masculine gender was preserved through the regular sound changes that transformed "pulvis" into "polvo" during the development of Vulgar Latin into Spanish.
