At least you’re being honest about why you’re changing things around. No one has a pot to piss in, but the big companies do the ‘BIG SALE’ with the whistles and bells, as if they’re doing us a favour for knocking the prices down on the crap they can’t sell. Nice move on your part Katie. Well done. Refreshing to see some transparency
ABSOLUTELY!!! No, this is very much for my customers and followers I so highly value and want to get soap to. I’m making big moves toward affordability in 2025 because yes, I can still sell all the soaps I make at my current price point, but I want amazing soap to not be so out of reach for everyone. 💕
@RoyaltySoaps thank you so much for leading by example. Your kindness and generosity is always apparent, but never more so than now. We appreciate you.
One thing I always wish was on the packaging is the fragrance list that you list on the website. I know I can sniff them, but I always wish I had those scent notes so I could read them, sniff, then read them again to understand what I’m smelling. I love Royalty Soaps and have bought many - they are my treat to myself! I love to use them in the shower, my special fragrances! No more boring bar soap for me!
I think if you wanted to use a projector all the time you would have to mount it to the ceiling and then make small marks on your table to put the mold in the right place. The 3d printed grid sounds easier as it's similar to what you are already doing and you don't have to turn off the lights.
As someone who uses a projector for cutting kids clothing out, I mounted my projector pointing down! They also make short throw projectors you could use!
I have said it before but have to say it again ….if we could bottle the Katie essence and share it round the world would instantly be a much better place. You are such a huge beacon of light. While you are a business and I get you still need to pay your staff and pay your bills and put food on your table , you are showing how it can be done and remain real , honest and with such decent ethics ………. Something many big businesses need to think on . I love watching not just for your amazing creative slam making skills but you are like a walk in a blossoming garden or Green warm woodland - Katie you just radiate goodness and joy. Sending you and your family a huge hug and loads of love. Xxx
My mother and i have been watching your channel since i was 15/16- and im 21 now. My mothers has always hinted at wanting your soaps- and this year its looking mighty possible. Thank you for your long term dedication, and amazing creativity. We are blessed to have artists like you.
I have being buying from your store i think 3 months straight😂 thanks to you I now have all my little presents for my friends and aunt! I love every single one of the one that I got and even tho they tempt me to have them for myself I would resist! I want my loved ones to experience a true, excelent,and delicious smelling Royalty bar of soap!!! Even my husband is obsessed! 😊Thank you!! ❤
I wonder tho if this really is recyclable. There must be a plastic coating inside so the soap wouldn’t make grease stain, and that might make the carboard unrecyclabe, when if it is just plastic, it can be recycled.
I got this soap about 4yrs ago, it was the flat top 3 kings...absolutely LOVED it and it lasted for ages Got to say I always chopped the bars in half anyway, one for upstair and one for downstairs :)
Yeah...my stress level is not great. How can I tell? Immediately started bawling at the mystery box discount. I might actually get to finally buy some royalty soap!!!
@RoyaltySoaps and I thank you from the bottom of my sad, anxious heart. But in better things...THANK YOU for telling us about Over the Garden Wall last year. It finally popped up on Hulu (or Prime?) this year and I actually got to watch it. It. is. Amazing. 🥰🥰🥰
I love the idea of the 3D printed embed marker, that should speed things up by a lot. Also: if you want something like this, check your library. Mine has a 3D printer lab that barely gets used
This soap is beautiful! If you didn't want to have it year round because of the theming, I could very easily see this being remade into a starry night soap if you added embeds or even made it frosted top 😊
This is such a kind & thoughtful thing to do for your customers. I haven't been able buy for a while due to the cost of living & I'm in the UK so shipping is a huge issue for cost as well. Hopefully sometime soon I'll be able to buy again, I miss using the body lotions because they were so good for my sensitive skin. I still have some piles of soap since I was cutting them in half to use them. You are an inspiration & such a kind soul❤ I would love to try the Balsam Fir & Wild Berries soap, I love a fruity earthy soap
I just placed my first order in many years and I’m so excited for it to come! I did grab up the mystery box but added the wildflower honey soap as extra bc I really wanted that bar! 🎉 ❤
The new packaging is great - I've long been a fan of the size/shape *and* packaging of the Simplicity bars, so pleased to see you taking the whole line in that direction. Looking forward especially to Coconut Cashmere (cos yes, I'm the girl who loves coconut soap all year round) also Frankincense & Myrrh, cos have somehow never tried it in several years of buying from you. Planning to do a Mystery Box and maybe stock up on other stuff, too!
Ik the projector seems like a one-time use or something that won't be used as much due to how it's controlled but it truly will be the BEST grid option to have due to not having anything in the way of your hand and the soap!!! Definitely something to invest in in my honest opinion
Depending what kind of projector you have, You can get a microphone boom to mount it on. I use a projector to cut out patterns for clothing. Checking my calibration every time I turn it on to make sure it’s square and calibrated correctly. Currently debating if I should figure out a calibration for the folding table and soap mold height I use…. 🤔
I love how much you think of us. And the environment. Side note.... I really don't like the new size. It's definitely a me thing and I'm that way across the board. Always felt that way. It's not you. 😅😅 But I really do love how much you've always thought about us all these years. Thank you for everything. ♡♡
Oh my word Katie! I love this soap! This is the soap that showed up on my feed and brought me to you! I got a bar maybe 2 years ago? I never opened it….it’s so pretty, it’s sitting on my dresser! 😂❤
I've finally bought some Royalty Soaps again after about five years (due to shipping and customs duty to Germany). I'm so excited to get them and to try out the glass soaps I ordered😊
lol - I spent the same amount I usually do this time of year.. just got a bigger haul 🫶🏻 samples for stocking stuffers and two mystery bundles to last us a bit ! Love you guys 💙
"A lot of people use this for baking" I feel called out and seen at the very same time xD I made a marble cake and used that swirling technique for it haha.
I have binged the beginner videos (yes including the lye safety video 😂) and I am hooked on you and your videos. I am getting used to the question of the day. You give off Rosanna Pansino vibes and I love it so much! You’ve made me so comfortable to order my stuff and make soap! I intended on just doing soap as favors for my daughter’s wedding next November(2025) but am heavily leaning towards starting a THIRD Etsy shop for soaps! I currently have a digital shop with everything from invites and flyers to drag and drop digital planner stickers and soap wraps. My physical shop is a mixture of laser cut/engraved stuff, vinyl and sublimation items as well. I think a soap shop would keep me completely occupied! Thank you for your amazing videos and I cannot wait for my supplies to get here and start creating!
I’m excited for your new packaging! It looks so professional! But I also NEED to know what that outro song was because I need it for my holiday playlist 🥺👉👈
Wow, thank you so much for doing the sale! I've wanted to try a bunch of your cold process soaps, and I'm constantly watching your videos. What really got me to hit the purchase button was being able to get both your boba tea soaps, and then I got a bunch of other things I wanted to try (shampoo and conditioner bars). It's a treat for myself, and I was able to get most of what I wanted to try because of this sale (I kept taking things out of the cart, then putting them back, over and over again), and I really appreciate it. I'm not able to ever make cold process soaps because it would be very dangerous for me to work with lye because of my newly acquired visual impairment, but I have been playing around with melt and pour in the past few months, and I'm obsessed. I've done swirls and geometric shapes (angling the mold), and embeds will be next. I have so many fragrance oils from some of the places featured on your videos already because I've been mixing my own spray perfumes, perfume oils and sugar scrubs, so soap was a good next step. And, honestly, after suffering my disability this year, I think I gravitated towards bar soaps and shampoos because of the tactile nature of holding a yummy, fragrant bar, and it does take up so much less space to store than all those plastic bottles. I'm already noticing the lack of clutter now that I've switched over.
If you ever have another daughter you need to call her amber the way you pronounced it made mine and my husbands day. Love your accent ❤. The new packaging is beautiful ❤️
While the soap was creamy white and had the black on top, oh my, does it look a lot like a pudding or some similar sweet with a very thick chocolate syrup on top I think it would be an interesting color combo and design for a more sweet scented soap
Bought even before I watched the video! The discount was a nice treat as I was buying gifts (and had to replenish my galaxy girl body scrub!) Eager to see what I get in the mystery box...
I wonder tho if this new package really is recyclable. .. There must be a plastic coating inside so the soap wouldn’t make grease stains, and that might make the carboard unrecyclabe, when if it is just plastic, it can be recycled?
I messaged you on instagram about 3D printing something for you! Not sure if you’ll see this or the message but wanted to reach out and see if I could help! ❤ your videos and your scent recommendations.
I have a question as a 1st time soap maker how do I know how much lye I need I did a soap cal recipe but I want to make sure I’m reading it correctly can you help me?
From Canada here and was so so sad to see the shipping cost be the same as the total 😢 $56 total and $46 to ship, I’ll have to miss out this time sadly

@@RoyaltySoapskudos to you and Royality Soaps. Lets hope other businesses follow suit, and soon.

i looked at an old video of Kenny (making mothersday soap), still miss him with his special humor

I would mount that projector on the ceiling and use it all the time
Exactly! It would save her so much time!
It seems like more steps to me, but everything is different for different people!
My mother and i have been watching your channel since i was 15/16- and im 21 now. My mothers has always hinted at wanting your soaps- and this year its looking mighty possible. Thank you for your long term dedication, and amazing creativity. We are blessed to have artists like you.
I think my favourite one of this soap is when you put the gold mica line under the blue it just stood out so beautifully. Cheers 🇦🇺
I have admired and respected you for years, this is just another endorsement for your company!!!!
I have being buying from your store i think 3 months straight😂 thanks to you I now have all my little presents for my friends and aunt!

obsessed with the soap boxes. So pretty!❤
I'm so so excited for the new packaging! I'm really glad you made the switch away from plastic, and I can't wait to get this new collection tonight!
I wonder tho if this really is recyclable. There must be a plastic coating inside so the soap wouldn’t make grease stain, and that might make the carboard unrecyclabe, when if it is just plastic, it can be recycled.
This is that one soap a year that actually puts the royalty in the royalty soaps that royal blue and the 3 kings too!
Royalty Soaps have come such a long way! I want to try the Balsam Fir & Wild Berries soap!!
I love that you bring this one back every year, it’s my boyfriend’s favorite
I got this soap about 4yrs ago, it was the flat top 3 kings...absolutely LOVED it and it lasted for ages
Got to say I always chopped the bars in half anyway, one for upstair and one for downstairs :)
Yeah...my stress level is not great. How can I tell? Immediately started bawling at the mystery box discount. I might actually get to finally buy some royalty soap!!!
Awwwwwwwwwwwwww now I’m shedding a tear! It’s exactly for people like you that we are doing this! 💕💕💕
@RoyaltySoaps and I thank you from the bottom of my sad, anxious heart. But in better things...THANK YOU for telling us about Over the Garden Wall last year. It finally popped up on Hulu (or Prime?) this year and I actually got to watch it. It. is. Amazing. 🥰🥰🥰
Yay cardboard boxes!!
Hiya to all the lovely people
Omg finally!!!!!! Ive been suggesting a projector for years!!!!
Frankincense & Myrrh would be my pick but all are lovely 😍
would love to try the coconut cashmere and i already know i would like the frankincense and myrrh.
I love the matte of the blue when it's saponified
It's like choooocolate 😆
I love the idea of the 3D printed embed marker, that should speed things up by a lot. Also: if you want something like this, check your library. Mine has a 3D printer lab that barely gets used
I have been watching you for so many years and you continue to impress me. I just love how absolutely genuine you are. Thank you for that.
This soap is beautiful! If you didn't want to have it year round because of the theming, I could very easily see this being remade into a starry night soap if you added embeds or even made it frosted top 😊
I am trying all of them, thank you for doing this change, it .means I can buy them all!
I am also so glad you moved away from plastic!
This is such a kind & thoughtful thing to do for your customers. I haven't been able buy for a while due to the cost of living & I'm in the UK so shipping is a huge issue for cost as well.

I’m SO excited to shop tonight! Thank you so much Royalty Soaps! 🙏🏼
Frankincense and myrrh! And I'd love to have it all year!

You’re amazing and I appreciate you, your videos and your company so much!!!
Oh, i wanna try the balsam! New packaging is just lovely.
so nice of you to give people such a nice discount. Thank you
I love how much you think of us. And the environment.
Side note.... I really don't like the new size. It's definitely a me thing and I'm that way across the board. Always felt that way. It's not you. 😅😅 But I really do love how much you've always thought about us all these years. Thank you for everything. ♡♡
This is my absolute favorite soap
I am very excited to try the new bar size! I also love mystery boxes, I may have to get one of those also!
Thank you! Just bought 4 boxes for Christmas gifts!
Oh my word Katie! I love this soap! This is the soap that showed up on my feed and brought me to you! I got a bar maybe 2 years ago? I never opened it….it’s so pretty, it’s sitting on my dresser! 😂❤

Love you guys 💙
The 3D printed idea is perfect sounding!
At first I thought she wasn’t including blue! 😮
Balsam Fir and Wild Berries
you can just get a small ceiling mount and clip it into that, making it super stable and not moving.
Always stunning! That blue and gold is amazing!
Thanks so much for being so aware of the tough economy and helping out with pricing options for everyone.
Love love love anything and everything that July makes!
"A lot of people use this for baking" I feel called out and seen at the very same time xD I made a marble cake and used that swirling technique for it haha.
I am so so so stoked for the new boxes
They all look like they smell amazing! Love the packaging❤
32 minutes!!! I'm So ready for this collection 🎉
They're all so beautiful!
I have binged the beginner videos (yes including the lye safety video 😂) and I am hooked on you and your videos. I am getting used to the question of the day.

That’s crazy how dark that discolouration gets 😮😮
I’m excited for your new packaging! It looks so professional!
But I also NEED to know what that outro song was because I need it for my holiday playlist 🥺👉👈
Just placed my order!!! Yay!!!
omg i’ve never been this early sooo excited…….
Yay, I finally made it in time for your bundle! I can’t wait to get this collection ❤❤
Miss Katie, will you be making wax melts for the winter times? I recently fell in love with them and I can't wait for more fragrances!
Coconut Cashmere!
Wow, thank you so much for doing the sale! I've wanted to try a bunch of your cold process soaps, and I'm constantly watching your videos.

I can't wait to get the soaps, they look fantastic!!
Would like to try the wildflower honey the most
All four!!
If you ever have another daughter you need to call her amber the way you pronounced it made mine and my husbands day. Love your accent ❤. The new packaging is beautiful ❤️
Just bought a mystery box! I LOVE surprises!
If you get the boxes printed for you, can you please share where you get them?
I need one of each!!
While the soap was creamy white and had the black on top, oh my, does it look a lot like a pudding or some similar sweet with a very thick chocolate syrup on top
I think it would be an interesting color combo and design for a more sweet scented soap
I will take 'em all.
Great Job!
Bought even before I watched the video! The discount was a nice treat as I was buying gifts (and had to replenish my galaxy girl body scrub!) Eager to see what I get in the mystery box...
So love these videos
Idk why, but the term "sniff hole" did me in 😂
What's the new soap cutters name?
You're such a
refreshing respite from all the political pain going on right now
Yes, I’ll be happy when this is done! So sick of it.
Wildflower and honey 😊❤
Peppermint is always best
Coconut and Cashmere
Katie, bring back Saponify! We love to see her!!
I’d love to see a more affordable shipping option to Australia if there was any possible way 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
I wonder tho if this new package really is recyclable. .. There must be a plastic coating inside so the soap wouldn’t make grease stains, and that might make the carboard unrecyclabe, when if it is just plastic, it can be recycled?
Ok that looked like vanilla pudding with chocolate sauce at the start
🎉that's awesome ❤❤
It looks like a big slab of chocolate marbled cheesecake when it was in the mold... 🤤
MY DREAMS COME TRUE 😩😫😫😩😖😖😖
Gorgeos soap.
BalsamFir & Wild Berries please!!
Are your soaps antibacterial?
As a new mum I'm surprised I'm this early 😅
Congrats 😊
Thats so cool Katie. You are good person so many are struggling right now
I messaged you on instagram about 3D printing something for you! Not sure if you’ll see this or the message but wanted to reach out and see if I could help!
❤ your videos and your scent recommendations.
