    In conversation with medical student Oceane Eichle In conversation with medical student Oceane Eichler... "Regardless of what anyone says, if you want to study medicine, then do it for yourself; it doesn’t matter where you come from or if you are not a straight-A student. Yes, you have to have decent grades, but if you have passion, nothing can stop you at the end of the day. NEVER doubt yourself." More on Cosmocreole.

" Fiy Kreol is the first business idea I have decided to pursue. Like many other new businesses in Seychelles, the idea for Fiy Kreol came about during the pandemic. The reasons why I thought of starting Fiy Kreol were; that many online stores had stopped shipping to Seychelles at that time and have not resumed international shipping to date..."

She shares her journey from Seychelles to Nevada with Cosmocreole.Link in the bio. "The journey is not going to be easy. You're going to meet people who will leave you along the way, and you're going to have setbacks, obstacles, challenges and tough choices to make. Some days you're not going to be able to give your best, and it's okay not to be the best every single day. Some days you might feel like you want to give up or even doubt yourself. You will experience all sorts of criticism, people who'd look down on you, people who doubt you, and people who don't want to see you win. But these are the challenges you face along the way that build you and prepare you to achieve what you've been working for. So don't ever stop working towards your goal!" Natasha Chetty

    To all mothers, we hear and see you: To the moth To all mothers, we hear and  see you:

To the mothers of neurodiverse children, we salute you for fighting, paving the way for your children even though no one has paved the way for you.

To the mothers who have lost a child, you are heartbroken, but the way you move forward in grief is humbling and inspiring.

To the mothers of differently-abled children, tiredness is your life but you do not give up. We see your love.

To the mothers of adopted children, you are brave —giving them a home, being there—loving them.

To the mothers doing it alone, your determination is noted—you are stronger than you think.

We hope we raise children who understand  that their mothers are flawed but we try our best.

Happy mother's day to all the wonderful mothers and mothers to be. 🥰

Living with Bronchiectasis can be stressful and frustrating; whilst most people with the condition have a normal life expectancy, for people with very severe symptoms, however, Bronchiectasis can be fatal if the lungs stop working properly. Elaine needs a double lung transplant. Read Elaine’s story on Cosmocreole.

    Dear Mothers, To the mothers of neurodiverse chil Dear Mothers,

To the mothers of neurodiverse children, we salute you for fighting, paving the way for your children even though no one has paved the way for you.

To the mothers who have lost a child, you are heartbroken, but the way you move forward in grief is humbling and inspiring.

To the mothers of differently-abled children, tiredness is your life but you do not give up. We see your love.

To the mothers of adopted children, you are brave —giving them a home, being there—loving them.

To the mothers doing it alone, your determination is noted—you are stronger than you think.

To all mothers, we are unique—accommodating and fiercely protective women because of motherhood. However, never forget that as mothers we do not hold our children back but instead, allow them to feel safe enough to wander independently if they can and explore the wonders of life —the good, the bad, and the ugly!

Mother's are flawed but we try our best.

Happy mother's day to all the wonderful mothers and mothers to be.

    This year, for me, the celebration of women is a b This year, for me, the celebration of women is a bittersweet one. As a woman, wife and mother, I am heartbroken for the millions of families in Ukraine being affected by the war. So, this International Women’s Day, let us acknowledge the courage and determination of the extraordinary women facing the conflict.

From the women fleeing the violence to keep their families safe to those on the front lines or bringing us their stories on the ground as journalists, to the leaders managing the crisis. These women are playing an important role in this crisis, and we salute them this International Women’s Day.

We've compiled a small ebook, a reminder of the strength, wisdom  and determination  of some Seychellois women. You can download from our website. Link in the bio.

Happy Women’s Day

Embrace Your Natural Hair

2 April 2021 · In: Beauty, Beauty, Hair, Hair, Skin & Beauty

From braids and coils, to twist-outs and wash & gos, let’s acknowledge that natural hair movement has firmly taken root everywhere including Seychelles, as women move away from chemical relaxers and embrace their natural and beautiful textured hair.

From braids and coils, to twist-outs and wash & gos, let’s acknowledge that natural hair movement has firmly taken root everywhere including Seychelles, as women move away from chemical relaxers and embrace their natural and beautiful textured hair.

When it comes to managing natural hair, it requires a bespoke regime depending on the texture of your hair to ensure great result and hair health – kinky, curly, coily, wavy or straight, natural textured and Afro hair has unique needs. Whether you’re starting on your own journey or your journey started a while ago, we hope our guide will somewhat be beneficial.


These are all tried and tested products by women with natural hair and we also made it our mission to read the reviews and speak to women navigating the natural hair journey. All of the products are available online or if you are based in Seychelles, Delrose Beauty Shop at Mont Fleuri stock most of them.
