NO SUN USAGE PLEASE - CONTRIBUTOR REQUEST<br /><br />Meet the twins who refused to spend more than 24 hours apart for 18 years and still love to match their outfits - claiming they are the "exact same person".<br /><br />Identical twins Lyndsey and Louise Scott, 23, grew up sharing the same bedroom and wearing the same clothes and have a "bond like no other". <br /><br />Up until aged 18 the pair didn’t spend more than 24 hours apart and would do everything together.<br /><br />When Louise went to study English at the university of Liverpool, Liverpool, in 2017, Lyndsey moved in to her sister’s accommodation so they could be together.<br /><br />But for the first time in 18 years the pair had to spend more than a day apart when Louise went to study abroad in Kingston, Canada, in 2018 for four months.<br /><br />Now the girls live and work together in Liverpool, Merseyside, and share the same taste in food, fashion and love to match outfits, and are both also gay.<br /><br />Louise, a lifestyle content creator, said: “We didn’t used to spend more than 24 hours apart.<br /><br />“If one of us had a sleepover the other one would come or we both wouldn’t go.<br /><br />“We shared a room for 18 years.<br /><br />“We’re 99 per cent the same.<br /><br />“We both love fashion, the same style, food and watch the same content.<br /><br />“We love the idea of being twins.”<br /><br />Lyndsey, a lifestyle content creator, said: “It’s fun and chaotic.<br /><br />“It’s a bond like no other.<br /><br /> “It’s like having another brain.”<br /><br />The pair say they are so in tune they are both allergic to the same things – penicillin and parabens – and even had their tonsils removed on the same day.<br /><br />Lyndsey said: “We’re like the exact same person.<br /><br />“We would always get tonsillitis at the same time.<br /><br />“We went down for the operation to get them removed on the same day.<br /><br />“We’re allergic to the exact same things – when I was a baby I took penicillin and my head doubled in size so Louise has never been allowed to have it.”<br /><br />The girls now share a flat together in Liverpool, Merseyside, with Lyndsey’s girlfriend Rosie, 25, an aspiring actor, while Louise’s partner, Jenuelle, 21, an music management, is always around.<br /><br />Louise said: “We need to get on with the our partners.” <br /><br />Louise and Lyndsey, who studied videography at LMA University, Liverpool, combined their skills and starting content creating together in 2020.<br /><br />Lyndsey said: “Now we live and work together.<br /><br />“We’ve experienced everything in life together.”<br /><br />The pair grew up wearing identical clothes and say they got “embarrassed” about it as teens but now love to co-ordinate their outfits and even share make-up.<br /><br />Louise said: “We tend to match.<br /><br />“So we’ll wear the same top and different pants.<br /><br />Lyndsey added: “For 23 years of our lives we’ve always had the exact same hair cut and hair colour except for when Louise went rogue and got rose gold.”<br /><br />The twins are so close they tell each other everything and even when they “bicker” they’ll be back to normal seconds later.<br /><br />Louise said: “It’s another version of yourself.<br /><br />“If one of us doesn’t like a certain food the other one will know not to try it.”<br /><br />Lyndsey said: “If there is a brief moment where one us doesn’t like something that the other one likes. <br /><br />"It will literally last for a month and then the other will convert and we’ll both like the same food.”<br /><br />Louise added: “Lyndsey was adamant she didn’t like jam on toast and I was adamant and said I know you’ll like it you need to try it and she was adamant I’d like jalapeños.<br /><br />“And we both like them now.”<br /><br />The pair look so alike people struggle to tell them apart and the twins say they will answer to each other’s names.<br /><br />Lyndsey said: “We’ll answer to each other’s name.<br /><br />“It’s like we’re on auto.<br /><br />“Most people try to learn the difference but it’s hard so we’ll just answer to both names.”<br /><br />Follow the twins @lyndseyandlouise
