A 40-year-old mother and her 19-year-old daughter are causing a stir online after revealing that strangers often mistake them for sisters due to their uncanny resemblance and youthful looks.
The duo, who frequently share their lives on social media, have amassed a following of admirers who can’t get over how alike they appear. ‘People are always shocked when they find out I’m her mum,’ the mother explained. ‘They assume we’re sisters because of how young I look.’
Genetics or Lifestyle?
Many followers have speculated whether their similar appearance is down to good genes or a shared healthy lifestyle. The mother attributes her youthful glow to a combination of both, along with a strict skincare routine and staying active.
‘I’ve always taken care of my skin and avoided excessive sun exposure,’ she said. ‘But I also think laughter and happiness play a big part in keeping you young.’
Internet Reactions
Social media users have flooded their posts with comments praising their looks and asking for beauty tips. ‘You two could pass for twins!’ wrote one follower, while another joked, ‘What’s your secret? I need whatever you’re having!’
The daughter, meanwhile, finds the mix-ups amusing. ‘It’s funny when people don’t believe she’s my mum,’ she admitted. ‘But I love that we look so alike—it’s like having a built-in best friend.’
