Each person is destined to age differently. Whether it’s genes or lifestyle, some people turn gray pretty quickly and their skin gets wrinkled, while others look young until retirement. Like 46-year-old Joleen Diaz, who is often mistaken for her daughter’s sister or girlfriend. And it’s not a fake compliment.

How to look like a 20-year-old girl at 46.

Jolene Diaz, 46, and her daughter Meilani Parks, now 23, became famous not too long ago for their looks. The women, who look like twins, posted photos of themselves on Instagram and became superstars. They were written about in the press as a phenomenon. It is impossible to look so young when you are almost 50 years old!

The phenomenon caught the attention of Instagram users who were unable to remain indifferent and flooded the mother with compliments. Despite the substantial 24-year age gap, these Californian girls are accustomed to being mistaken for siblings. Jolene disclosed that her daughter is unperturbed by comparisons regarding their age.

She explains, “While she was growing up, she would often hear people tell me they thought my mother was my sister.” So, as we see, this feature is not new in their family.

Being young beyond your years sometimes isn’t so good.

Joleen Diaz used to work as a high school teacher and moved to California when she was 10. The woman has been single since splitting from her husband and daughter Meilani’s father.

Now, as a real star on Instagram, she has younger men reaching out to her in her DMs on a regular basis. She claims that her youthful appearance made people report her Hinge profile because they thought she was a catfish. “I’ve had my account deleted several times,” the woman said. “It’s funny, I think people think I’m a fake account and report me.”

The stunning brunette now boasts more than 650,000 Instagram followers, with whom she often shares her dazzling selfies and bikini photos. She wants everyone to see a real personality behind the photos that she posts. She says, “I could link my Instagram to my profile, which would likely help prove that it’s really me but I don’t do it because I think my social media doesn’t present the simple, down-to-earth person I am.”

She wants to show that she isn’t as glamorous as her Instagram persona suggests. “I’d like to be able to connect with someone and then explain my social media to them once they know me a bit more,” she says.

The twin-like duo is more than just mom and daughter.

Now, the lookalike mother and daughter both have profiles on various dating apps. They often go on double dates and even like to approve of each other’s potential partners.

“When we are both seeing people, we will often go bowling, to the movies, hikes, to the beach,” Joleen said in her interview. “Meilani asks for my advice on dating all the time. I love that she trusts in the advice I give. I feel like she’s well-balanced in dating and I’m glad my experiences can help her out.”

Despite her marvelous looks, she’s lonely.

While the woman is often noticed by younger guys on social media and apps, she’s happy to leave the millennial men to her lookalike daughter.

“Age isn’t a deal-breaker for me, but I don’t want to date a toyboy,” she revealed in her interview. “I would never even remotely consider dating someone who is young enough to be friends with my daughter.”

Mature men who are interested in Joleen have to meet the mother’s criteria. “I gravitate toward ambitious, motivated men, someone who is confident, has a positive outlook, and can communicate well,” she said. And the mother-daughter duo isn’t stopping the double dates any time soon — not until they find their second halves.

We wish this delightful woman the best of luck in love. After all, as the stories of Josh Duhamel, Marc Anthony and other celebrities show, sometimes a real feeling has to wait for many years.
