For anyone who decides to do that "Hand Soap" thing and wants to sell them please remember that those types of cleaning gloves are made with latex and there are people who are very allergic to latex so if you use it and want to sell it you need to let everyone know you used latex as the mold. I am allergic to latex and if I touch something that had been made with or for some reason had been around latex for some reason I get a very horrible allergic reaction. I just thought I would put this here because not many people realize or think about this type of allergy.
@@megankrahl1182 it can get very bad from a bleeding rash to not being able to breath. Most people with latex allergy are medical workers or others that have come into contact with it on a daily bases. When we had to use nothing but latex gloves. I guess the more you use it the more chance of getting an allergy to it. I cant count how many medical professionals I know who are allergic to it.
as someone whos also allergic to latex, i def second this! only recently found out that i also react to things that were made in latex molds. just thought i was allergic to everything lol
My dad found out he’s allergic to latex by wearing gloves. He wasn’t able to take the gloves off for a few hours and his skin came off with the gloves 🤮
The Watermelon one could definitely be done in layers in one of Katie's normal moulds as a 3-layer soap, then cut into vertical triangular wedges to resemble melon slices?
Another youtuber, Ann Reardon at How to Cook That, does a similar type of video but with food hacks and cake rescues. Excellent content for playlists if you're just in that kind of mood 😎
RE: Watermelon Hack -- You can buy cookie cutter sets that are rings decreasing in size. They were a huge thing back in the day for cookie and pastry making. My mom has a set that's older than I am, but they still sell them far as I know.
I know how you feel, I was in your situation 3 weeks ago. Home now yay. I love these videos because she is always a bright ray of sunshine when you are stuck with all those crazy schedules that hospitals have. Hope you get well soon
The glove was puffing up for two reasons: 1. As the glove was getting filled with the soap, it had to expand in the container pushing the air outside the glove but trapped in the container upward; 2. The heat from the melt and pour was heating up the surrounding trapped air and causing it to expand. Also the T-handshape is appropriate for a handsoap! Since handsoaps usually go in the bathroom (T-handshape is used in the ASL sign for "bathroom")
i would imagine the watermelon would be MUCH easier working from the inside out, rather than outside in. blue tack or playdoh would probably make a better seal too
I love these reactions videos from blossom and five minute crafts from the actual professionals. How to cook that , epic gardening are some great ones if anyone is looking for more.
I really appreciate how Ann Reardon from How to Cook That points out how some of those hacks can be down right dangerous (like the spun sugar on the egg beaters.) Imagine if a kid was making that watermelon soap and Mom/Dad didn't realize that were going to be pouring hot liquid soap all over the table in 3...2...1...
They say the Ivory soap has to be as new, and fresh, as you can. Old Ivory soap that has set around, won't expand. The wrapper needs to be wet and sticky to the bar. Not dry and separated.
Oh that makes sense for a few reasons. Microwaves mostly act upon water molecules, and lots of other kinds of molecules mostly ignore them. Also I think this effect is based on water turning into steam in the tiny air bubbles within the soap, expanding them, and then escaping. For both of these reasons, if you use soap that is already dry, it won't have any water to do the work.
The Ivory soap works because Ivory has lots of tiny air bubbles. It's the same reason why Ivory floats. When the air bubbles in the soap heat up they expand.
@@floramew I suspect that this trick also requires the tiny air pockets in Ivory soap (otherwise other soaps would do the same trick), and if the water got in, I guess that it would displace the air.
One of the first Royalty Soaps video I ever saw was that one where you reacted to the hacks and your strong reaction to the cinnamon was basically what made me look up more of your videos. It's so cool to see you actually make these!
What I'd try to do to make concentric rings would be to mold the centermost portion first, let it dry, and when it's solid put it in the middle of the next larger mold, and pour the white around the edge, then repeat for the green. Idk if that would work, but a similar technique worked for me when I've layered jello.
They have done several together! Either melt & pour where Lily makes them mostly on her own, or with cold process where Lily chooses ingredients and Katie pours them.
@@Dawn_Hannah I think she means where Lily can do almost all of it on her own? Probably when she gets a bit older. Omg that was so heartbreaking when she got so upset that she thought she was going to be making the soap after they picked out the design and colors and Katie said "when you wake up in the morning, you'll see your soap!" and Lily was like "but I thought I was making the soap" 🥺 and Katie was like "I'm so sorry honey! You're just a little too little to handle lye." omg it was so precious
I got my second Pfizer jab yesterday and it has me SO unwell today, this is fantastic distraction thank you! (I may be in pain and feeling sick but I am very thankful for vaccines and it's much better than getting covid so it's fine really)
I got the Pfizer one too and felt like I had fought a tank and lost, for nearly a week, so icky!! Still have the second one to get, hopefully that's going to be easier🤞
I'd love to see a soap using a soap cane, those always look awesome. It would be great if you could do a flying fox/fruit bat related soap. There populations are really struggling right now and raising awareness would be cool. Also bats and fruit embeds would be soooooo cute 😍🦇
@@kelsey2333 it's cold process soap that is poured into a tube to create a long cane. That sold cane is then embedded inside a cold process soap. Then the soap is cut you'll see the cane. My fave one I've seen with a soap cane was using it to it looked like a moon in the sky once the soap was cut.
i've done something similar to the watermelon one! i used a circular silicone mold and a shot glass and it worked beautifully. also a lot safer and less complex than using hot glue and knives lol
The hand soap actually did work for Jenna and Julien when they did this a few years ago haha Did anyone else watch that? They did change a couple things to make it look like the final product though.
That'd be fascinating to see the design process for! I'm guessing the raised Braille bumps would have to be created using round embeds on the surface of a nonfrosted soap bar...? For someone with visual impairment, I imagine the fragrance would be of even more interest too. (Unless, like me, you are drastically allergic to most fragrancing products??) I'd be really interested to hear a little about how you find the experience of watching Katie's videos with just the audio component? Her content generally does seem really good at having anything in any onscreen instructional text repeated verbally (such as colorant names etc). Although I'm guessing a lot of Caleb the editor's great visual jokes might escape, alas. Her spoken descriptions of finished products are usually detailed enough to get a reasonable idea of what the final bars look like too, which wouldn't always be the case with every TH-cam creative I've encountered...?
i was like "what are those dots around the hair???" and you turn around and i see it's a bow XD it's shade just perfectly matches the wall, at least in the intro
@@RoyaltySoaps OMG did The Duchess of Suds reply to me!!! Thank you so much!!! You really are an inspiration, and I NEVER miss a video you put out and my daughter loves it when you bring Lily in them with you. You have a VERY BLESSED DAY!!!!!
I feel like I'd want to see a version of these hacks done right. Like royalty soaps style. Maybe the creepy hand could be smaller and work as an embed in a Halloween soap.
A friend and I once toasted our fingers playing with microwaved ivory soaps, we used it like very hot play-dough and made shapes that cooled into usable soap
With the ivory soap, I think that the people getting more "cloud like" results are probably getting the soap wet first. The addition of water would certainly alter the reaction, and it would make sense that it would increase it. The entire reason the ivory soap thing works at all is that ivory soap is filled with little air pockets. When you heat the bar in the microwave the ambient moisture in those pockets gets heated into steam and forces out this sort of cascade of dry soap foam. If you were to get the bar of soap wet, some of those pockets would become filled with water, it would be like adding fuel for a bigger reaction.
When I watched Safyia do these in videos and in the stream I just kept thinking," I want Katie to try these. A person who makes soap has to be able to make these work." That soap hand is one of the most cursed things on the internet. It haunts my nightmares.
I think what might be easier for the watermelon soap would be to just mold a disk of green, once cooled cut out the centre, repeat with white then red. At least that would spare you the gluing trauma. Most importantly though the easiest way to get the rings would be to buy a set of graduated circle cookie cutters. Still a lot of work for a couple of soaps that are just cute. Or pour sheets and roll it up like the cinnamon roll?
I just realized also that they did it the hard way. It would be easier to start inside out ie mold the red, then pop it out and mold the next layer around it. (would not work though if you are using a cup for the inner mold, you need something open at both ends.
A note on the watermelon soap- you DID prototype your mold, you proved that it worked...not bad. Now as with any prototype, it's on to improvement, because there is always room for that!! Keep up the good work!!!
I have never searched for anything soap related. I don't search for either hacks, or hack-debunking videos. So I have absolutely NO idea how or why the YT algorithm put this on my feed. But I have been watching this channel's videos for like an hour now and so thank you, TH-cam!
Because of you, I've begun a hobbyist business making soaps they look like real minerals that I call "soapstones." ^_^ from single obelisks to big quartz clusters, they're all handcarved like that, and people really seem to enjoy em! ^_^ 💖 Thank you for bringing soap magic into my life- and now others through the things I make, Katie! 💕💕💕
Safiya and Tyler literally just made some of these soap hacks on a live stream such as the gems and the watermelon soap. They had very little issues making the watermelon.
They did also use a very different mold than the vid suggested if you recall as carlie said it just leaked everywhere the way the video said to- as Katie said it would too. Katie just stuck closer to the original video
For the watermelon soap work smarter not harder. Make sheets of each color needed then once almost completely hardened cut out the shapes you need with a set of circular cookie cutters that gradually grow smaller. After that adhere the rings together with a bit more melt and pour on the sides. It should work and you'll get way more bars this way. 😁
ah yay you did a "sequel" to the hacks vid! I feel like it would be cool to see you make an actual hacks video like they try to do but with ya know... actual instructions and stuff. i also think it would be interesting if you tried to make jelly soap like I've seen a few videos try to do but fail miserably. Great video Katie! love all your soaps~
I do ivory soap in the microwave with kiddos I work with all the time. It works best when it's been cut into smaller pieces. You get the cloudiness from the raw open parts more than the chiseled and smoothed edges.
Love watching Katie doing these!! She’s just so.sweet - I, on the other hand, would be swearing up a storm after 30 seconds with that watermelon soap! Love you Katie!!! ❤️❤️❤️🌈🇨🇦
This was so much fun!! Keep doing the hacks. I love seeing your professionalism come out and it’s nice to have an actual soap at the end of your trials!
I’m pretty sure Safiya & Tyler did the watermelon soap in a live stream & it worked. Also, I’d love to see you do these hacks in a real way with cold process & see how it comes out when not done in a hack-y way & by a professional with good materials.

I was just wondering, why on earth wouldn't you glue the middle bit down first then glue the outer bit around it? :D

Yeah, since its low temp hot glue used, the heat from the melt'n'pour warmed back up the glue seal.

Because of you, I've begun a hobbyist business making soaps they look like real minerals that I call "soapstones." ^_^ from single obelisks to big quartz clusters, they're all handcarved like that, and people really seem to enjoy em! ^_^ 💖 Thank you for bringing soap magic into my life- and now others through the things I make, Katie! 💕💕💕
Sometimes I think about you going "CiNNaMON?!??!!!" from the previous video and that still brings me joy, thank you
Safiya and Tyler literally just made some of these soap hacks on a live stream such as the gems and the watermelon soap. They had very little issues making the watermelon.
Came here to look for this comment. I feel like some people testing "hacks" make them unnecessarily stupid on purpose to get more comments.
They did also use a very different mold than the vid suggested if you recall as carlie said it just leaked everywhere the way the video said to- as Katie said it would too. Katie just stuck closer to the original video
For the watermelon soap work smarter not harder. Make sheets of each color needed then once almost completely hardened cut out the shapes you need with a set of circular cookie cutters that gradually grow smaller. After that adhere the rings together with a bit more melt and pour on the sides. It should work and you'll get way more bars this way. 😁
Lol she’s so cute! Those giggles. I was just smiling this whole video 😊
For the watermelon one. They make cake cutters in perfect circles that go from like 4 inches down to 1 inch in sets of like 10 sizes.
That sneeze reminded me of the time you were making soap with Lily. Remember your comment, good thing we're not selling these!
ah yay you did a "sequel" to the hacks vid! I feel like it would be cool to see you make an actual hacks video like they try to do but with ya know... actual instructions and stuff. i also think it would be interesting if you tried to make jelly soap like I've seen a few videos try to do but fail miserably. Great video Katie! love all your soaps~
I love how rather than just test if they work, Katie made a point to make them work even if she didn't follow the hack video
I do ivory soap in the microwave with kiddos I work with all the time. It works best when it's been cut into smaller pieces. You get the cloudiness from the raw open parts more than the chiseled and smoothed edges.
I was laughing so hard at the editing that my 8-year-old brother came into my room genuinely worried about me
Caught it at 27 seconds post uploading LETS GOOOOOOO
Woohoo!!
I gotta say, your laugh, your giggling, your outlook, just brightens my day and makes me smile...I adore you, never change 💜
Love watching Katie doing these!! She’s just so.sweet - I, on the other hand, would be swearing up a storm after 30 seconds with that watermelon soap!
Love you Katie!!! ❤️❤️❤️🌈🇨🇦
I just love listening to Katie talk ❤️
With the ivory soap thing, at my school we heated it for like 5 minutes and it worked really well.
i loved that you corrected them when possible so we can try to make them if we want! this was so fun thank you for the video 😊
This was so much fun!! Keep doing the hacks. I love seeing your professionalism come out and it’s nice to have an actual soap at the end of your trials!
i think i love her energy. it circumvents my own more "stagnant" energy. plus the freckles and marks on her face is so endearing to me. i adore her
YESSSS I LOVE THESE, please make more later on!
That hack video is what brought me here like 3 months ago. I never knew I would become so invested in soap making.
I just started the video but oh my goodness KATIE your hair looks amazing! I love it so much!
I’m pretty sure Safiya & Tyler did the watermelon soap in a live stream & it worked.
Also, I’d love to see you do these hacks in a real way with cold process & see how it comes out when not done in a hack-y way & by a professional with good materials.
Safiya also did the cinnamon roll soap and Katie commented on it.
You are such a vibe it’s so awesome I enjoy your videos EVERY TIME ❤️💜💕💙
Awww thank you!!
