<p>Are we seeing double, or have we just been initiated into the wonderful world of mom and daughter tandem <strong>Heart Evangelista</strong> and mom <strong>Cecilia Ongpauco</strong>? </p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px;display:block" width="700"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1769487366474Heart and mom.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" width="700"/><span class="fr-inner">Cecilia Ongpauco and daughter Heart Evangelista | Photo via @iamhearte on Instagram</span></span></span>We all know Heart Evangelista as one of the country&#x27;s bona fide beauty icons. Her symmetrical face, jet-black long hair, flawless skin, and Filipina-Chinita features have made her one of the most sought-after actresses and endorsers for as long as we can remember. It&#x27;s no surprise, then, that with her mom tagging along for <strong>Paris Fashion Week</strong>, we can&#x27;t help but see their striking similarities. Truly, the apple doesn&#x27;t fall far from the tree. Beauty truly runs through their genes.</div><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px;display:block" width="700"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1769487566652Banner Heart Evangelista and Mom Cecilia Ongpauco PFW.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" width="700"/><span class="fr-inner">Cecilia Ongpauco and Heart Evangelista | Photos via @mariaceciliaongpauco and @iamhearte on Instagram</span></span></span></div><p>For <strong>Paris Men&#x27;s Fashion Week</strong> and <strong>Paris Couture Week</strong>, we&#x27;ve been watching the duo serve and slay each day, show after show, taking the Parisian cobblestone streets by storm. Whether it be Heart sashaying in style, letting her wavy black hair down, or her mom all dolled up in a hairstyle that showcases her micro bangs, we have to say—we&#x27;re obsessed with their complementary looks!</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px;display:block" width="700"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1769487757631SnapInsta.to_619951398_18566252971040002_1292109757221192199_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" width="700"/><span class="fr-inner">Heart Evangelista in a Kenzo Look | Photo via @iamhearte on Instagram</span></span></span><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px;display:block" width="700"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1769487818010SnapInsta.to_619336868_18565887625040002_4646363771727718262_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" width="700"/><span class="fr-inner">Cecilia Ongpauco strikes a pose in winter garb | Photo via @mariaceciliaongpauco on Instagram</span></span></span>On some days, we see them all matchy-matchy, while on other days, we see their personalities shine through. Heart loves to be the playful, risk-taking fashionista who also experiments with beauty looks. Through all the years and seasons of Fashion Week that we&#x27;ve watched her— whether in a bob, with red hair, highlighted, or sporting graphic eye makeup or pared-down, soft beauty looks—we can honestly say that Heart always loves to reinvent her look through clothing and makeup. You simply never know what you&#x27;re gonna get! This season, she went au naturel with her natural black wavy hair, a flawless porcelain doll-inspired face, and just a touch of highlight and blush on the nose.</div><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px;display:block" width="700"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1769488178682SnapInsta.to_622587290_18567070045040002_7356209216502697903_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" width="700"/><span class="fr-inner">Heart&#x27;s current Paris Fashion Week beauty look | Photo via @iamhearte on Instagram</span></span></span> Cecilia Ongpauco, on the other hand, still shines ever so radiantly in a classic beauty look: Kohl-lined eyes, beautiful, healthy skin, peach blush, and a creamy lip. Did someone say classic beauty? Yes, indeed! In an Instagram post, Cecilia shares, &quot;At my age, I didn’t see this one coming,&quot; most probably referring to her current stint at Paris Fashion Week. We truly believe age is just a number, and with Cecilia&#x27;s example, we know that the best is yet to come!</div><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:700px;display:block" width="700"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1769488455382SnapInsta.to_619522511_17851561008663675_6322441203588521910_n.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" width="700"/><span class="fr-inner">Cecilia Ongpauco in kohl-lined eyes | Photo via @mariaceciliaongpauco on Instagram</span></span></span></div><p>Truthfully speaking, with all the cute skits and fashion content we&#x27;ve been seeing from this duo, we can&#x27;t wait to see what&#x27;s next for them! Cecilia even shares in another Instagram post, &quot;Truly refreshing trip down memory lane when I was managing my daughter 28 years ago. Makes me proud of how she’s come a long way!&quot; With &quot;Momager&quot; Cecilia joining Heart for her fashion adventures, it truly is heartwarming to see how the bond of mother and daughter makes the experience even more special.</p>
