Despite the fact that they were born more than ten years apart from one another, these brothers and sisters share a surprising trait in common.
Albinism is a very uncommon genetic condition that results in a lack of pigmentation in the skin, eyes, and/or hair. Because of this, people who have albinism have a very distinctive appearance:

The birth of an albino child is extremely unusual, which is why it is so astonishing that a Kazakh couple gave birth to not just one but two albino children spaced a total of 12 years apart.
Meet the wonderfully distinctive siblings Asel and Kamila, who have become in-demand models thanks to their impressive portfolios:
At the age of 14, Asel is the oldest of the siblings. Her mother, Aiman Sarkitova, has stated that she was taken aback by the fact that her daughter was born albino.
“When I gave birth to my eldest, genetics were not so developed with us,” she said in an interview with the Daily Mail. “Only recently has it begun to take shape. The medical professionals were taken aback.
Imagine the shock they felt when, a decade and a half later, their daughter Kamila was born with the same problem.

Because the sight of these two siblings working together as a modeling duet is so wonderful and striking, the pair decided to go into business together.
Since she was ten years old, Asel has been working as a model, but now that her younger sister is by her side, the demand for her services has increased even further. On Instagram, the two users have over 33,000 followers between them.

Albinism has helped them achieve a great deal of success, although it isn’t always simple for them to do so. There are additional medical issues, such as a sensitivity to sunlight, that are related with the disease.
Asel explained, “If I am going to be outside during the afternoon, then I will absolutely put on sunscreen, put on clothes that will protect my skin, wear headgear, or use an umbrella.”
“In the evening, when there is almost no sun, it is a lot simpler for me,” the speaker said.

But regardless of the highs and lows that life may present them with, they will always have each other to lean on.
Because albinism is so uncommon, people who have it may experience feelings of isolation, but these two sisters are fortunate in that they’ll always have a family member who is similar to them.
And we can only hope that their success as models will bring more awareness to albinism and demonstrate how stunningly unique the appearance of albino people may be.
Asel stated that there are a lot of individuals who are unaware of what albinos are.
