The Double Cleanse
The Double Cleanse

Hosted by skincare enthusiast James Welsh and professional makeup artist Robert Welsh, The Double Cleanse is your weekly window into everything beauty. James and Robert cover everything from dealing with pimples to how to perfect your makeup and the realities of social media influencing.

We're talking all about the wild world of beauty hacks and skincare techniques on this episode of The Double Cleanse - what's actually useful and what's just viral clickbait! After opening with nostalgic stories about their school days (including a conspiracy theory about James inventing Cadbury's Dream chocolate bar), the twins dive into the modern beauty hack phenomenon. Are influencers really showing you groundbreaking techniques, or are they just making content look more interesting than it actually is? The twins are breaking down the difference between genuinely educational hacks – like colour correction tutorials that teach you colour theory – and the ridiculous "you're using this product WRONG" videos that are purely for entertainment. They're calling out the pressure on influencers to make everything seem revolutionary when really, you can just rub the damn product on your face. The key takeaway? If something is already working for you, ignore the hacks.

We’re back with a new episode of The Double Cleanse, and on this episode they’re shining a spotlight on the underrated beauty brands that deserve way more attention than they're getting! After opening with an absolutely chaotic conversation about Kewpie mayo factory tours in Japan (yes, really), autocorrect disasters, and why eggs on mayonnaise packaging make James physically ill… the twins dive into today's topic: brands that are doing everything right but flying under the radar. From the peel-off lip mask that actually works, to Medicube’s criminally underrated serums that get overshadowed by their viral toner pads. Robert passionately defends toner pads as a "treating yourself" skincare moment, while James argues you could just use a serum instead. The twins are also calling it now: Chinese beauty is about to have its moment in 2026, and if you're bored of clean girl aesthetic, your brand might be Girl Cult. The overall message? These brands aren't playing the viral sensation game – they're just making genuinely good products that work.

On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are handing over to you as they review YOUR most controversial beauty opinions, as submitted via social media. Does SPF need to be worn in all climates… even cold ones? Are ingredient lists pointless (unless you have allergies)? And is skincare being marketed too much like make-up? It’s all being debated in this episode! We’re also getting passionate about how game-changing brands have created a generation of self-proclaimed “experts” who don’t actually understand formulation, and we’re addressing conspiracy theories about microplastics in skincare. If you've ever had a hot take on beauty, this episode is for you! Robert & James also give their opinion on the Jackie Aina controversy… do you always need to be grateful for gifted products? Or, perhaps, it’s more of a trade-off than you might think. Don't forget to subscribe and catch new episodes of The Double Cleanse every Monday! *Product Recommendations* REHAB.

Is the undeniable return of the Y2K aesthetic dangerous? On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are tackling the return of nostalgic beauty trends – the good, the bad and the dangerously problematic. Starting with a discussion about the recent America’s Next Top Model Netflix documentary – and the return of “heroic chic” (we’re NOT here for it) – James and Robert get brutally honest about the worrying resurgence of extreme thinness being glorified, the rise of "lunchtime procedures" and how Y2K nostalgia is bringing back some seriously toxic beauty standards. They also discuss their own relationships with cosmetic procedures and why they think their generation has become somewhat immune to the "you should look like this" messaging. The twins are hoping we can keep the fun nostalgia of Y2K – the Hilary Duff movies, the pop music, the glittery makeup – without sliding back into the damaging beauty standards that came with it.

We're back with another episode of The Double Cleanse, and this week James and Robert are getting petty about the weird, annoying and downright questionable things beauty brands do that make them NOT want to buy their products! After opening with their obsession with limited-edition K-beauty packaging (Pokémon Pikachu Sunscreen, anyone?) - and a particularly conflicting episode of Influencer Fact or Fiction - the twins unleash their brutally honest pet peeves. From brands constantly bragging about making millions while underpaying staff, awkward email marketing that feels too personal (or not personal enough), and brands that just can't read the room. The twins discuss why indie brands celebrating their millionth million gets old fast, influencer partnerships that feel misplaced, and why sometimes the smallest brand missteps can turn you off forever. If you've ever refused to buy from a brand for a petty reason, this episode is for you!

James and Robert are known for their obsession with K-Beauty! On this episode of The Double Cleanse, the twins are diving into everything that K-beauty is getting right – and why they’re worried that Western influence might ruin it. To the expertly crafted brand philosophies, to the product innovations that are genius, James and Robert are highlighting just why K-beauty is so addictive. But, they’re also not holding back: calling out the brands that are starting to pander to Western audiences and TikTok trends instead of sticking to what they do best. From celebrity endorsements like “Kylie Jenner’s top picks” and why Cardi B promoting a cream feels so out of place in this space, the twins are spilling all about the things that they think K-beauty needs to STOP doing in an attempt to become Westernised. Along the way, they share their genuine K-beauty favourites, from Charlotte Tilbury's plumping lip balm (yes, it's technically Western but bear with them) to the incredible variety of makeup sponges available at Olive Young that will change your entire application game. The message is clear: K-beauty does everything right – the marketing, the imagery, the products – so please don't mess with perfection!

Sometimes beauty brands just can't seem to get it right... and on this episode of The Double Cleanse, James & Robert are sharing their brutally honest takes on the beauty brands hey have complicated relationships with. In our Fact Or Fiction segment, the twins discuss a horrifying tale about viral skincare gone wrong. When a woman tried one of those trendy overnight peel-off collagen masks, she woke up with wrinkles that wouldn't disappear – and two months later, she needed filler to fix the damage. Is it fact or fiction? The answer might shock you! James & Robert are calling out luxury fashion houses for selling eyeshadow palettes in cheap plastic packaging, questioning why luxury nail polish is so terrible and... which brand needs to update their packaging? You don't have to love everything a brand puts out, and you're allowed to be picky with your beauty purchases.

Is chasing fame the worst career move you could make? James & Robert are here with another episode of The Double Cleanse, this week all about social media virality! After diving into their hotel nightmare (complete with invisible people and conjoining rooms…), the Welsh Twins are breaking down the harsh reality behind those millions of views from the fleeting nature of internet fame to the questionable ways people engineer their viral moments. James and Robert get brutally honest about how "going viral" has lost all meaning in 2025, the impact of the internet’s ever-shortening attention span, and how viral success rarely translates into sustainable careers or genuine connections with audiences. They discuss the psychology behind our obsession with viral content, the dark side of internet fame and why they actively avoid going viral themselves (yes, really). If you've ever dreamed of your 15 minutes of TikTok fame or wondered if viral success is worth the price, this episode is your reality check.

The Welsh Twins are back with another episode of The Double Cleanse, and this week James and Robert are throwing shade at the beauty products everyone loves to hype! Starting off with a debate about American vs British customer service culture (including a shop that has a quota for its staff members touching customers!), we're then diving into the most overhyped, under-delivering beauty products ever. From the cult-favourite Tarte Shape Tape concealer that Robert describes as "liquidated clay" to Caudalie's Beauty Elixir, which James lovingly calls "overpriced mouthwash in a bottle". The twins aren't holding back as they dissect why these viral sensations might not deserve all the praise! They're discussing everything from questionable brand ethics to ingredients that have no business being on your face. Plus, they're calling out Charlotte Tilbury's Magic Cream for making you stick to your bed sheets! If you love the products they're roasting, don't worry – they still love you. But get ready for some brutal honesty and a reminder that hype doesn't always equal quality.

Have we just uncovered one of the biggest beauty scams? On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are diving into the great skincare paradox! After Robert admitted to finally seeing through a skincare routine (and getting the benefits from it!) in last weeks episode, we're now looking at the other skin. James and Robert explore why your skin barrier is begging you to chill out, how overcomplicated routines can backfire spectacularly and the psychological trap of thinking you need 47 steps to look decent. They also discuss the rise of "skinfluencers" pushing excessive routines and how the industry profits from making you feel like your face is constantly broken. From chemical burns disguised as "purging" to the satisfying simplicity of a three-step routine, James and Robert share their brutally honest takes on when skincare becomes self-sabotage. It's a reality check for product hoarders everywhere!

The internet is full of hate messages... but, can you turn hate into success on social media? On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are diving deep into online negativity! Are internet users just getting meaner? James and Robert dive into why TikTok comments feel more vicious than traditional YouTube hate, the rise of "rage baiting" as a hobby and how the algorithm encourages negativity for engagement (you too, can turn a hate comment into viral content!). They discuss the difference between valid criticism and just being an ass and the glorious satisfaction of publicly embarrassing commenters who leave hate with their full name and Bible quotes in their bio. From serial commenters to performative cruelty, nothing is off limits.

We're diving into a tropic that is guaranteed to spark debate: should your friends and family support your influencer journey? On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are sharing their unfiltered POV! They discuss why forcing your mum to like every post might actually harm your algorithm, the difference between genuine organic growth and pity follows, and why treating your content creation like a business from day one is crucial. The twins get brutally honest about the "begging culture" on TikTok, explain why reaching follower milestones through forced support is pointless, and offer better alternatives for building a real community. It's tough love for aspiring creators, but someone needs to say it!

Our social media feeds are filled with influencer content nowadays... have we all had enough? On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are giving their state of the nation on influencers! From "TikTok speak" to how identical brand briefs have made everyone sound the same, James and Robert are diving into how the influencer industry has evolved from exciting media disruptors to predictable walking billboards. They also share their thoughts on why certain achievements have lost their wow factor, the natural distrust audiences have developed toward sponsored content and why tapping on products actually makes sense (fight them on this!). As always, it's brutally honest, occasionally chaotic, and a reminder that even your favourite creators are tired of saying the same things!

Ever wondered what happens behind the scenes when a bunch of influencers go on a famed ‘brand trip’? James and Robert are spilling all of the behind the scenes tea on this episode of The Double Cleanse! From the glamorous Instagram posts to the exhausting reality behind the scenes, James and Robert chart the evolution of the ‘brand trip’ – from the early days of "aspirational" beach photoshoots to today's more educational experiences. They share stories from their own trips to South Korea with TIRTIR, reveal the difference between genuine partnerships and outdated influencer pandering, and spill some tea on entitled creators who couldn't be bothered to experience once-in-a-lifetime opportunities… James & Robert aren’t holding back: Names are named, brands are shamed and nothing is off-limits!

On our first episode back, we’re asking the question that comes across our minds whenever somebody launches a new podcast… why does everyone have a podcast nowadays?!
