We're Angry! Fake Aesthetics, Brands Faking Problems & Roasting TikTok Shop

James and Robert are back with another episode of The Double Cleanse, and this week they're in FULL RANT MODE… they’re unleashing it all.

After celebrating Marc Jacobs Beauty's comeback with gorgeously packaged products, James goes on a passionate tangent about something that absolutely infuriates him: why do all lip product shades have to be sexually suggestive? He reads out the offending shade names and rightfully questions why our lips need to be reduced to sexual objects in product marketing. Whatever happened to empowerment and self love in beauty? 

They're calling out influencers overselling "vintage" film camera aesthetics as revolutionary when it's just low-quality pictures you can replicate with a filter in one click. They're absolutely roasting the TikTok Shop towel warmer dispenser. And most importantly, they're fed up with brands literally inventing problems to sell solutions. Hot towels? No one asked for that. Shitty quality photos? Buy our camera! Walking upstairs wrong? Get our backwards slippers!

The message is loud and clear: it's okay to be excited about products, but stop overselling and stop making up fake needs!
