Summary

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.

content creator. Hi. We just had lunch. Listen, the best thing about coming to London is always

1:10.6

the food options. The food options. Because I feel like when we lived here, we probably lived in London for like eight years, right? I never care. Like, we'd go to Nando's at the end of the road or that bagel place that always gave us the poots. Yeah. But whenever I come to London now, the first thing I do is type in the address of the hotel. And see what's around.
