Cleaning up after soaping....would be a good addition to this series.
I learned letting it sit for 3 days then washing them. I wash my counters with vinegar then soap. I'm still trying to find a better faster way.
Yes I made my first soap yesterday and then was like well now what do I do?!
Yes. A how to wash your dishes properly would be nice. I’ve been making soap for a few months now and I swear no matter how I wash them it still feels like there’s an oily film on my bowls.
She mentioned that she would include this, so I'm hoping she still does.
@@TheMswol I use a spray like one you'd clean your counter or stove top with then rinse under hot water
Please teach us how to clean our containers and lye water container . Some of us have a regular kitchen instead of studio and I don’t know how I could clean everything I use for soap making . Love this video
Yes! I'd like to see an actual clean up. Would the soap build up in our drains or clog them up? So curious!!
@@beautywithcourtney Unless you've had problems with commercial soaps building up in your drains, you shouldn't have a problem with your homemade soap doing it either.
@@ginna1375 Awesome!! thanks for letting me know!! :)
I wait until it saponifies and then just rinse it. Its soap and washes itself. As for my lye container i don't wash it unless i have mixed TD into my lye solution
Fat Girl For The Fit Soul I Dream in Soap has a great video about this!!! She’s the Einstein of soap making.
I’d love to see a q&a video where maybe people post pictures of something that happened and you answer common reasons it could happen. Or maybe just a video showing off what you’ve been tagged in and reacting to them
Tree Marie soaps Facebook is great for this exact thing.
Yes!!!! Please!!!! I have a batch I am so irritated with because I have no idea what happened 😂
@A Gee - nah, Facebook isn't great for anything.
Unfortunately we cant post pictures on youtube.
@@maleriemarinello2331 details?
I had an issue with my first soap.
1. I believed someone who said you dont need a stick blender. After 3 hours of mixing, I decided, yeah, you really do. I think I hit a false trace.
2. My castor oil disappeared, as in just gone. So I'm on soap calc trying to modify my recipie AFTER I had oils and lye mixed.
3. I woke up to honey oatmeal soup.
So I rewatched (AKA threw it in a pot, in the oven for two hours) basically hot processed it. Which was another learning experience. And because I had put a layer of oatmeal on top, I ended up with a lot of oatmeal in my mix.
Basically the soap looked like oatmeal cookies. But hey, they're just curing to harden up now.
I would love learning how to use additives (milk, honey, etc) and how they affect your batches. I would also love if you shared some of your other recipes (how different percentages of oils affect your batches, and different oils you can use) with us for soaps so we could see differences and benefits of different recipes. Thank you! You're amazing!
Yes this
This!!
How much castor oil should I use? Sincee there's 80%of olive oil, what should I change if I'm adding castor oil?
@@kendralemb.2428 If you are gonna use castor oil, look at the Royal Upgrade PDF instead of the basic one. It shows the appropriate percentages for using castor oil. It looks as though it is 75% Olive oil and 5% Castor oil, whereas the basic recipe calls for 80% Olive oil only.
@@AndYouAllFallDown , thank you!
Yes! An intermediate soap series that covers additives and non-water liquids would be cool
Essential oil blending, how to get the perfect fragrance.
@@zestygurl I think maybe she meant for cold process soap? Can essential oil be used for cp? I thought your only suppose to use fragrance oil? Sorry new to soap making.
Ally Cat you can definitely use essential oils for cp soap! As well as hot process and melt & pour. But make sure to do research on the essential oil you choose first cause some are stronger than others or unsafe for kids etc!
I just love making new scents using FO and EO! I look at what goes together but sometimes its fun to try something different!!
Me: watches Royalty Soaps videos from even years ago
Royalty Soaps: posts a new video
Me: 👁👄👁
I would love how to make some soap frosting!!!
You can use any recipe to make soap frosting, you just wait for it to thicken up. It's worth buying her soap frosting club box with recipe, though.
@@meloniebush9240 is it available? Where can i find it?
@@odeth813 You should be able to find it on the Royalty Soaps website!
@@odeth813 The next set will be available on her website on July 3rd
@@meloniebush9240 thanks 😊
I'd like to learn about incorporating clays and other additives! 😁
I don't have a soap request, I want to see the shrink wrap tunnel 😂
Omg yes!!
I would love one explaining common mistakes or issues when making soap. Like soda ash or false trace
False trace was my first batch. Had to redo it.
I think a series about your recommendations on how to pack up to soaps to send to friends and family would be nice.
She has a video on how she packs her soaps actually lol. th-cam.com/video/6rrcRlAFQhI/w-d-xo.html
After they've cured for at least six weeks, I've sent them via US mail in a bubble mailer from Florida all the way to Canada, no problem. The recipients had no complaints.
RainbowTea thanks for showing me this!
Ginna thanks for the idea!
You’ve done such a good job with this series. I wish they had been available when I first started soaping last November. You are very kind and generous to do this for people. Thanks!
I would also love to see packaging added to this series!
There is a video on packaging
Part two of debunking soap crafts please!
Katie you've inspired me and I've made 3 different batches already! Thank you for all you do!!!
My husband heard you say welcome back because I am watching this on my break from work and he was like glad to be here...lol.
This soap gives me wild berry poptart vibes. The missing piece of the summer series!
Since I have most of the soaping stuff on hand I just waiting for a day off to do it. I've made soap for several years but life got in the way for a couple of years and I thought I lost my passion for it. You my dear with your kind and uplifting personality have reawakened my need to make pretty things! Thank you!!
I'm still waiting on my mica. I can't wait to start
Same! Everything else is acquired.
I've gotten everything but my Mad Micas. I heard it's taking two weeks to receive orders. so I ordered a different kind of mica powder thats arriving tomorrow :(
Me too!
Girl same.... Waiting and waiting
Sammmmmmeeeeee
Is there any special way to clean the dishes that have little bits of leftover soap on them? (Stick blender, spatula, containers, etc.) Thank you so much! Just waiting for my colors to arrive and then I can make some soap!
Wait a day! And then wash like normal
Emma Finken don’t rinse them in hot water!!! This comes from a seasoned soap maker. Wipe all your soap equipment down with paper towels or rags. Rags are better for the environment. If you use rags wait 24 hrs. to wash in the washer. AND, wait 24 hrs to pop dishes into the dishwasher. Happy Soaping. I hope you enjoy!!!!
Jennifer Bonutti Thank you so much for the advice!!
I wish these videos were around a year ago when I started making soap, even so, I’m really enjoying ‘relearning’ and picking up some pro tips! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us Katie! 🤗
Katie: by now you should have made three bars!
Me knowing I have too many hobbies and hasn't been following along : 👁👄👁
Katie: Breathe in, breath out
Me: *breathes in, breathes out*
Also me: *laying on my stomach eating chips while watching this*
I'm new to soapmaking and I'm starting with melt and pour soap, I was wondering if you could do a video where you do something fancy with melt and pour soap instead of cold process soap? Or maybe some helpful tips on how to make it look super duper pretty?
Katie has a video where she does a M & P with a goldfish embed, showing were Threadbanger went wrong.
The Video Mattigot is refering to is here: th-cam.com/video/7UvqfQu7UDo/w-d-xo.html where Katie does a CP base with a fish embedded in melt-and-pour above it
@@terriatca1 i saw that one, I was thinking more like another tutorial she did like the geometric layers. It was clear melt and pour and white melt and pour, I had fun following along with that!
I am depressive and lockdown ain't helping with that but I know that when I'm feeling low I can come and watch your videos and your smile and good vibes always put a smile on my face, that's why I'm here now and you cheered me up as always, so thank you for that ❤️
I would love to learn how to do a mica line! I love the look of all of the soaps which have a mica line.
You tap the mica on with a tea strainer
I'm not a soap marker, but by just watching her videos I would guess: Do as in the previous video of the two tone soap, but before you add the second layer you just sift mica all over the surface until its opaque and then gently add the second layer. If the bottom layer was set enough the mica should stay in place I think 😊
@@meloniebush9240 thanks!!!
@@nathaliel9592 thanks so much ♥️
I would love to see different types of swirls!
Well that settles it. I must make soap this weekend. This video made my day. I'm so excited!!! Thank you Katie!
HI Katie, I just wanted to thank you for showing me how to make soap. I also wanted to thank you for helping me get through some rough days in 2020. I made a drop swirl soap today and it was so much fun. Peace, health and blessings to you and your family.
Great series! A video explaining how to formulate your own recipes using soap calc would be great 😊
I’d love to see a video about how to store your soaps when curing and when is best to wrap them.
I’ve got very little space and worried about dust particles sticking to my soaps when I begin.
It would be cool to hear what you started with when you began soap making.
I would love to have more information on curing as well for the same reason.
Behind the times commenting on this video, but as a fellow Terrell resident the fireworks were for their high schools graduation ceremony. They were super unexpected! Gorgeous soap, and I love that you’ve made these videos!
I think now that you've done these videos now that you should do a LIVE Q&A. And see if anyone needs any help with anything. You done GREAT. I could've done it before but you give alot of details and I like that. Thank you.
I have been making soap for about a year. Watching your videos made me start making before this beginner serie. LORD let me tell you ot wasnt easy learning all this alone ....lots of TH-cam videos helped me through this
Katie we need a mini kit 😖 I just wanna make 2 bars stop playing with my feelings these soap designs looks amazing.
You can use a recipe calculator like Soapcalc.net to size down any recipe you want. My first batch ever was 10 ounces.
I made some molds for 2 bars out of corrugated plastic, the stuff yard signs are made out of. They have it at Michaels. There are youtube videos showing how to make the molds. They work really well, I love my 2 bar molds.
I really appreciate that you use items that everyone would likely have around the house to start out with. I'm a candle maker and have only been using melt and pour for the past 2 years but I know my customers would love the variety of things I could do with CP. Thank you, Katie!
A video on troubleshooting and how to work with them is something I'd like
Katie, you are adorable and I love that you have shared this series with us! I'm going to soap with my 27year old daughter in her holiday break! (She is a teacher here in Australia) Our grandmother's would be tickled pink, not to mention extremely jealous of our stick blenders!!!😂 Love you for sharing your wonderful self in every video. God bless you!
Did you soap with your daughter? If so I’d love to know where you got supplies! I’m in WA and want to give it a crack soonish
Hi Loz. Aussie Soap Supplies are here in WA and I also get some of my micas and fragrances through Aussie Candle Supplies. Try Eco Warehouse based in Bunbury for incredibly affordably priced natural additives💕 Another great supplier, especially the bulk oils, butters and Sodium Hydroxide, is Range Products in Weshpool. They have a storefront for purchases and a pick-up option.
I do just have to take the postage hit sometimes and just order online for delivery.
Thanks for asking about this! I didn't get to soap with my daughter, but she does love my soaps!
Have fun, cut loose, be careful and don't hold back on your creative reins!!😄 Love from Sharon B
Katie! Would you ever consider doing childhood movies from from the 90’s inspired soaps? Like Matilda, babe, thumbelina... so much nostalgia 🤩🥳
I would LOVE to see you very clearly explain, in detail, soap calc. I have struggled with the measurements of water. The difference between TD & Kaolin clay & zinc oxide, how it performs in soaping. And go over the fragrance oils essential oils to be careful of, & which ones are more beneficial, less temperamental. Also, a video showing the process of "fixing" a soap when it goes all wrong... mine seperated last night & it was all I could do to not completely break down, all I could see was the loss materials & $. I think all of these could be some real beneficial info videos for us new soapers you've inspired. Thank you Katie!!
Hey Katie! I just wanted to thank you for your tutorials. I have been crafting (sewing, crochet, 3d printing, digital design etc.) for a long time and had been "threatening" to make soap for years but I was nervous about lye. During the pandemic I have been home with a bit of extra time. I watched your videos over and over and finally got the courage to try it myself. It was a huge success and have made many soaps in the past year and a half (maybe 30?) and even did two local markets. Your videos really lifted my spirits during these difficult times. Your positive attitude is truly inspiring, not to mention all the amazing soaps. :). Thanks!
It's not just your amazing soap creations that make this channel one of the best, but your personality and your randomness is just one of a kind. Love your channel so much 😊 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
I would love love love more specific videos regarding the preparation/measurements of the raw materials, and how the different recipes work. Also, some math would be nice too, as I can't seem to figure out the math for the water/oils, etc. Love you Katie!
Join the facebook group Saponification Nation. You'll learn so much! They have resources to teach you the answers to your questions, plus lots of soapers who can answer specific questions you may post.
@@meloniebush9240 thank you!!! Everyone here is always so helpful 😭🥰
She is so amazing. After learning from Royalty soaps, I made my first bar and my own company! Thanks so much for all you do to pay it forward! Living with anxiety, I didn't think I could work with lye and feel safe, but she makes me feel so safe as long as I was careful, wearing safe gear, and thinking safely during the whole process!
This is starting to get exciting ... well, more exciting. I've started collecting supplies and equipment. It'll be a little while before I'm ready to try making my first batch, but I can't stop watching the videos. They're addicting. I almost gave soap making a try back in 2016. I wish this series was available back then. I have a fondness for color, especially deep rich Earth tones. I'm really attracted to the multitude of colorful pattern possibilities with soap making. I was momentarily concerned when the previous video started talking about the pink layer. I'm not a fan of pink, but I found the color of the finished soap to be more towards the agreeable end of the pink range. I'll probably leave the TD out of that batch to darken up the colors a bit. I'm anxious to get the first two batches under my belt and try the drop swirl technique in this video.
AHHH I'm so impatient! I ordered everything on Monday. Still waiting for some to even ship. D: But I'm so excited! I'm new but ambitious (and a sucker for making things more difficult for myself) so I also bought your soap frosting kit when your shop went live! I already have ideas for how to incorporate frosting into these beginner soaps so hopefully it works out. :) I'm so excited!!!
Katie you are the most wholesome, amazing TH-camr I have ever come across, and you have legit changed my life with these videos. Making soap has become a great creative outlet for me, and your Bob-Ross-esk outlook on making mistakes when making soap, because hey, even if it isn't exactly what you were hoping for, it's still soap... Well, I have general anxiety disorder, and I've dropped a lot of hobbies because I feel like I'm not good enough to continue trying, but your outlook assured me enough to not only try in the first place, but also to just come up with plans b, c, and d, just in case I blend past light trace, or a color doesn't turn out, or a scent accelerates more than I expect. You are incredible. Please keep doing what you're doing, because you are inspirational and you brighten the lives of everyone that watches your videos.
I just ordered my supplies yesterday. I'm excited to try these things mid-July. I hope Katie makes more videos with more techniques for us to learn about.
Love ALL your teaching tips!!!
I would LOVE an embed video with details about your favorite mold suppliers, when to use CP vs M&P, color matching, mica dusting, storage, will they stick together... so many questions!! ❤❤❤
OOOOHHH and flower piping too!!
Thank you so much for this series!!
Thank you so much for making these classes!!! Can’t wait to start. 😊

Thank you so much for doing the soap making series!
I too am still waiting to a few final things, and i can't wait to try all 3. i hope there will be more of this type of learning, in the future. I love it, thank you Katie x
Thanks, Katie. This was great.
I love this video! You are so wonderful! 🥰
Thank you so much for making this series !
This is so fantastic! Thank you for doing all of this Katie!
I love how good you are and how generously open as well
After watching your academic series I have a WHOLE NEW perspective on soap making and no longer question why single bars of soap can go up to $15 on Etsy. I have mad respect for you soap makers
Like I had no idea it was so dangerous or that it can take 4-6 weeks to cure.
You are an excellent teacher!
Yesssss! Love this set of videos. If you could do a q&a while showing us how to package the soaps and clean up ( including dishes) that would be amazing.
Loved this series. I'm so looking forward to making these beauties
you're such a magical person!!!
Great job teaching! I really enjoy your videos!
You're a great teacher.
Haven’t started yet, but I’m thrilled to start a new craft/ possible hobby!
Thanks Katie. I will definitely make this soap.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos for us
You are amaizing! So helpful
Beautiful soap Katie!! Love it. Now I want to make it .... ❤️❤️❤️
I’m getting so excited for my Mad Mica order! I haven’t had a hobby since high school and I love that I can get creative with colours and fragrances with soap making! Thank you Katie!
I’m so happy I found you I appreciate you❤️😍😌
Yes I love this series even though I have been making soap a while. Have been doing much with my business. I have a website and a business page on facebook and Instagram. I would love some videos on how to get people to buy my soap more and how to promote it. I am going to make the soaps and will tag you after the 23rd. I'm fasting a bit from facebook , Instagram etc. I have been following you for a couple of years. Any info advice would help. Thank you for doing this and not charging us. It was helpful even for us who have been making soaps a while. Christie
My favourite soap maker, thank you for these lessons. Xxx
Thanks. Very well presented and very informative.
I would love to see exactly how you prep and do the soap icing on top of your soap. These videos are so helpful I love them xx
I love your vibe and your intention! This was a great way to give indeed! Keep rocking it girl!
I bought all the things I need and I'm so excited to start!!! Please keep making videos like these! I loved them and they are so helpful! You are amazing thanks for all your help!

Thank you so much for doing this series! There is so much amazing info here and I even learned some new tricks (I’ve been soaping for about 4 months) can’t wait to try a drop swirl now!
just placed my mica order! can't wait to start making soap with my girls! thank you so much for these videos! you are amazing!

I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you so much for being so kind with all your information! I appreciate you so much!
Watching your chanel has made me want to try this. It looks like so much fun!
