I think these 2 women know deep down that the men that they are with are 'no good', but they are are hoping that their instincts are wrong and that you will tell them differently.
Sadly, "you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink".
I think you need to allow them to continue in these relationships until the relationships end (yes, it will be difficult for you to do this, but they are adults and must be given the free choice to do as they will), and then be there for them for they are newly single again.
You are a good friend, but I would not take on any more of their grief. Give yourself some distance from them. (P.S. I like the suggestion of referring them to a professional counsellor. They might help them to see the "light" of their situation.)
