We demonstrate that the energetics of the observed star formation rate is sufficient to tear apart the dusty veil on time scales of $20-25$ Myr. This can explain the apparent lack of evolution of UV luminosity function of galaxies between and $z10$ and $z7$, by compensating for the lower galaxy masses at higher redshift by the absence of dust. We show, however, that this is a temporary phenomenon and soon after the last of the supernovae explosions have taken place, the expanding shell shrinks and obscures the galaxy on time scales of $5-8$ Myr.
