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

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!
