They say that we all turn into our parents eventually, but if you're a woman that happens to look, sound or act anything like your mom, then the phrase "like mother like daughter" is probably one you've heard thousands of times before. Usually accompanied by a roll of the eye and a wry smile, it's not always entirely clear whether it's a compliment - but like it or not, there are some genes that can't be escaped.

While there's certainly no shortage of famous folk whose parents are household names in their own right - including Rumer Willis (Demi Moore and Bruce Willis), Carrie Fisher (Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher) and Dakota Johnson (Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson) to name just a few - there are some doppelganger daughters that literally look so much like their moms that they could actually be them. Proving that beauty really does run in the family, here are a few celebrity offspring that will make you think you're seeing double.

 1. Reese Witherspoon & Ava Phillippe

These two could pass for sisters.

2. Cindy Crawford & Kaia Gerber

The 90s are back in fashion and they've got the perfect It Girl

 3. Julianne Moore & Liv Freundlich

Liv is the spitting image of the A-lister

 4. Jerry Hall & Georgia May Jagger

Georgia might get her lips from her famous father, but everything else is pure Jerry

 5. Goldie Hawn & Kate Hudson

We're not sure who's cooler out of the two

 6. Lisa Bonet & Zoe Kravitz

They're twins, basically

7. Gwyneth Paltrow & Apple Martin

They do say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree

 8. Vanessa Paradis & Lily Rose Depp

At just 18, Lily is already a model and actress, just like her mom

 9. Meryl Streep & Mamie Gummer

Which one is which? Seriously, though.

10. Christine Brinkley & Sailor Brinkley Cook 

It's like someone pressed copy + paste

It's fair to say that these ladies might just have won the genetic lottery, and with many of them following in their famous mother's footsteps, it's a sure thing that we'll be seeing a lot more of those familiar faces in the years to come. In the meantime, we can only think about what other celebrity doppelgangers will be revealed with the new generation of celebrity mothers - will Stormi look like Kylie? Will Chicago take after Kim or Kanye? We shall just have to wait and see.
