This Natural Men’s Grooming Products Line Made Me Stop Using Chemicals
Love It!
Wise Was My First Try At Natural Men’s Grooming Products And I Might Never Go Back!
When it comes to men’s grooming products the old saying : ‘‘To Each His Own” is in full effect. Everybody is looking for a different result, look, texture, experience, feeling, look on women’s face when they walk around, scent; you get the picture.

Even though fast food ain’t slowing down in a minute and pollution is at its highest. It seems like a major part of society has a new found consciousness about the environment.
We’ve seen the rise of new ways of eating, of living and thinking. It was only right that we start to change the way we take care of our skin and hair.
Wise is a Montreal-based men’s care line that focuses on creating eco-friendly and natural men’s grooming products. The word ”Natural” always has that stigma attached to it for some reason. Too expensive, not easy to find and/or ineffective.
Wise perhaps, knew how to bring light to this new kind of men’s grooming products because it came from the initiative of a barber. Indeed, Simon Chercuitte, founder & barber of Monthly barbershops wanted a product that was eco-friendly and natural based on the frustration of his clients who couldn’t find any.
Wise came out of this need and let me know tell you this: I might never go back to anything else. We’ve received their ”Essentiels” kit by the mail and tried it out for the very first time.

A wooden comb, shampoo. a clay pomade, some cream and a soap. Made of natural ingredients such as red maple, birch and essential oils. The attention to details is what makes the brand stands out.
The packaging is biodegradable, made of glass for eventual refills or other use. Wise as an edge that you can feel right when you apply their products.
The scent is not only amazing but it stays with you throughout the day through thick & thin (and God knows my days can be long). The clay pomade relax the hair in a few minutes and you just have to let the wooden comb do the rest.
As for the shampoo, its hydrating quality is surprisingly great. My hair tend to get dry very fast and I’m happy to tell you that I’m one day and half in and my hair still has that softer-than-cotton-candy texture.

The ”Essentiels” kit is 95$ and can easily last for a month if you use the products properly. Great investment in terms of quality, results and a great way to care for the environment.

The End Of An Era And A New Start: Dress To Kill Magazine Goes Digital
A New World Order
I hate to break it down to you so abruptly but the world is changing, the world as we knew it, the way we consume, the way we think and even that good old Dress To Kill magazine is going through it.
Read More: Learn About The Black History In Montreal With This New City Tour
As a young and inexperienced blogger back in 2016, I felt deep in my earth that paper was a dying medium and that the internet was about to carry the torch.
a hundreds of blog posts later, multiple attempts at building an online presence and literally trying to digitize the aesthetics & creativity I saw in magazines growing up.
I must admit 2 things: 1. what it takes to make fashion or information enjoyable is very hard to put together and 2 building an audience on or offline is a GREAT feat.
I grew to admire and respect my peers in traditional media because they made the most out of nothing at a time where Facebook and all those outlets were not a thing.
In case you didn’t know, Dress To Kill magazine is not your average magazine by any shape or form.
Promoting Canadian art and fashion from province to province was something seemingly unthinkable but they got it done.
From iconic covers with Lenny Kravitz and more iconic nights at le Mount Stephen to bring the whole industry under the same roof, DTK got it done.
Don’t take what I’m saying as a farewell note because today actually mark a rebirth for the publication.
Indeed, while the world was going all over the place, they went on a well thought out rebrand.
As you might have guessed, the biggest take away from this is the stoppage of the paper version of the magazine.
The focus is now digital but as I told you earlier, DTK doesn’t go halfway.
Their new platform will include an online boutique which once again is going to focus on shedding light on Canadian creators for men and women.

Do you think more magazines are going to make a full transition to digital?

We Ask A Personal Development Coach How To Overcome The Ins and Outs Of The Crisis
It’s all about your point of view
Everything You Need to Know Through The Lens Of A Personal Development Coach
I’m always amazed at how people like to stigmatize the role or relevance of a personal development coach. They’re quick to label it a scam, a fad, something based on nothing but little they did know, they’re coaches around the world who impacts millions and millions of people in a life changing way. I was looking for the equivalent of a Tony Robbins in Quebec, my research undoubtedly came back to the same name: Marc Dumaine.
Read More: Here’s What I’ve Learned About Myself Since The Coronavirus Crisis Started
Mr Dumaine is more than a personal development coach, he’s a man with a story.
Not your average story either. From overcoming alcohol and drug abuse to obtaining a MBA to running campaigns for some of the biggest corporations in this province. Here’s a man of many battles.
Honorable mention too, these days Marc is focused on creating an international platform to impact as many people he possibly can.
The bottom line is this. This personal development coach is not unfamiliar with trials and tribulations, changes and transitions.
That’s why to me, in a time like this where everything is doing a 180 degree, I had to pick his brain and ask him how can you and I get over.
In this Q&A, we indeed ask Marc Dumaine about several things such as how to bounce back from the crisis, his keys to success and much more.
QUESTIONS FOR MARC DUMAINE
#1 How did you figure yourself out as a future entrepreneur and what was the key factor that made you take that route?I was always an artist at heart and found that I didn’t it in any mole. After completing my MBA, I realized that my biggest assets were my differences. I decided at that moment to stop following what people expected from me and launched my own business. To me being an entrepreneur is an art form in itself. I have never regretted that choice since I launched Asana Coaching 10 years ago. #2 How can someone go from being self-employed to an entrepreneur making money without physically being there?The internet is booming with opportunities right now ! Even with the COVID-19, there is a redefinition of the way people consume products and services ! It is a TIME for being creative and look into endless opportunities ! Get out of our comfort zone and start being inspired by people who are already doing it ! Then, build yourself a right game plan with an amazing branding, and you are all set for the best adventure of your life.
