After you pour your wax into the mermaid mold take a tooth pick right away and guide the wax into any corners or crevices it didn't reach on its own. That's what I have done.
I don’t make soap or sell any of these things, but I watch Katie because she is just so dang kind and genuine and her videos make me happy 🥰 and of course her kids are just to adorable to NOT watch ❤️♥️
Katie, I just wanted to thank you for all of your hard work and for just being you. You seem like an honestly, genuinely nice person and have a great outlook on things. Plus, your products are awesome! Keep being you and have an awesome day.
As a soap maker who decided to add candles and wax melts, let me just say, the testing is sooo important. Every thing you change means you have to test again.
Hey Katie, regarding adding the fragrance oil, I suggest you add it into your wax while heating (typically about 180 degrees) and adding your color at the same time. This allows the oils to blend evenly within the wax and allow the wax to "absorb" the scent. Also, I recommend curing wax for at least a week or 2 for strongest scent throw. Hope this helps!
The 2 week cure time is wax dependent. Soy wax requires a 2 week cure time, paraffin about 24-72 hours (depending on type of parrafin. Para-soy is typically 5-7 days
It's best to add the dye when heating, then remove the wax from the heat and add your FO. Adding FO while still heating will cause the FO evaporate off too fast and could potentially exceed the flash point of the FO.
Cute wax melts. When I add embeds to the tops of my MP soap I use a pipette or a baby spoon to put some of the soap/wax onto the back of the embed then add it to the soap. This way you adhere the embed with a nice clean look.
I like the snap ones, but Katie, I truly laughed out loud as all of a sudden there was a broken tail count on the screen, which I'm sure was Caleb's inspiration. This was wonderful. On another note, I want you all to note how pleased I am that every time I order from your company it is filled super quick and I can tell by the packing that care was taken to make sure my soap/lotion/stickers are perfect when I open the box. Thank you!
I’m excited to see these come together! I’m dragging my feet doing a new soap fragrance test, so this is a perfect diversion! 🥰 PS the butter I said I was churning in the comments on your last video turned out fantastic, and my son’s friends loved spreading it on the blueberry muffins I made for their D&D snacks (my son’s first attempt at leading a campaign.)
My girls watched an older video of yours with with me yesterday. Later, my youngest said, "Mom, we are doing something fun for ourselves like Katie said!" We were headed to a concert and it was so cute that she remembered your good phrase. Thanks for always encouraging us to be good to ourselves, Katie! You are a gem!
omg I cannot tell you how freakin' *MESMERIZED* I was when you started pouring on that shiny blue glitter on the discs at 11:46 !!!!! Deep blues and purples are my absolute favorite colors, and I already thought the swirls and shimmers of the purple wax melts were beautiful, but OMG when you started sprinkling on that glitter, wow !!!! I wanted to dive right in that, it was so gorgeous!!!!!!!! 🤯✨🤯✨🤯✨🤯✨🤯✨✨✨
I love love love this idea. I think you should round the bottom of the mermaid tail and put it against the side of the mold so she looks like she is diving in. And the roses are A-MAZ-ING !!!!!. They look like the cards had been painting them. I am so glad you are showing us how you are trying to expand your business. I hope you did something nice for you today as well. Thanks again Katie for bringing a smile to my face on any random Tuesday afternoon.
I love your videos so much I’ve been watching them for years and they help me fall asleep at night because I feel like you’re just talking to me and you’re a genuine creator and I love jt. Anytime I’m feeling upset. I’ll turn on one of your videos because you always have so much bright energy.
This was so fun watching you experiment and have fun. The Alice in Wonderland -inspired ones were my favorites. I liked the technique for making partially-painted roses, and the blue for her dress tied everything together.
I loved the Alice in Wonderland inspired ones 😍 Surprisingly, I prefered the ones with less glitter this time. But they looked so light and everything matched so perfectly, it was amazing
I just love that you do so many different crafts and are totally up for it to fail, because you are a beginner. My favorite has to be the Alice Bar, loving the colors.
I just wanted to stop by the comment section and say a huge thank you to royalty soaps. I’m not ever the person to be too overwhelmed by media and goings on, but lately it’s been a bit much and I’ve felt it. Thank you for being a space of kindness, joy, and happiness for all of us viewers! This video really just took me out of the world for a bit and let me take a breath. So again, thank you!
I love your attitude when a mistake happens, like broken tails.. a giggle and oh well. shows your patience Alice is my favorite of the two. I loved the two-toned roses 🌹 😍
Thank you so much Katie!!! I absolutely just love when you give us these extra videos and the behind the scenes stuff, I swear if you just vlog your life ask the time I would be glued to my screen watching. Katie your so happy and positive and always pushing us all to do good things you just bring me so much joy. Sending blessings and good vibes to you and all your friends and family
My favorites were the Alice in Wonderland ones. They were simple but elegant and still conveyed the theme you wanted. The little mermaid ones were cute too and got the theme across and seeing you pour the purple made me want to see an Ursula wax melt with a purple bottom and a yellow seashell on top.
I would love to see a short of you melting them. They look beautiful finished, I bet they'll look even better melted! Also, I love watching your videos and learning with you as you grow. It's been awesome.
You should do a "Family Collaboration Collection" where you & each of your family members (adults at least) make a soap together pick colors/scents/designs together & make them together on camera for content!! ♡
I loved the Little Mermaid one! I also loved your outro for this video - the very subtle candle lighting and the period cup are great touches! I love all your videos and just bought a 3rd order of soap :)
U should deff make more wax things. Its nice to see u experiment with things outside of soaps, even tho watching ur soap videos r really really nice and 99% satisfying. ❤️
These are so fun. I started my biz 11 years ago making wax melts. They're so fun and a lot of work and figuring out goes into them. I highly recommend getting candle colorant from Nature's Garden or another well known company, you'll have better color pay off :) Alice in Wonderland is my very favorite, love those ones!
I get so excited when I see the video is a new product.. I enjoy when you teach us something new that's soap adjacent. 🙂 My kiddo got so excited when he saw the molds. He thought you were making chocolate 🍫. He looked at me perplexed when I told him you were actually making wax melts. His face looked confused and he said. " Mom why would you ruin chocolate with wax ". 😄🤣😂😆😄
Little mermaid all the way for me!! Next time brush tiny amount of metallic mica on the tail for a wow effect and you could get a seashell mold for the base. 😻😻
This was fun! I'd love to see you try these again with some crazy molds, like the ones Irresistible Wax makes on tiktok that look like realistic foods. Or maybe try scoopable wax next time! So many fun possibilities!!
Katie, I can't even get through the soaps that I buy fast enough so I have them on display! And I keep buying more, it's like an addiction. I really love the all-teal one in your new collection! I'm glad you've increased your production volume so I don't have to set an alarm and buy soap while I'm on vacation, lol. Love the new website! To add: I literally just cleaned my face with a diamond soap because I just moved and I don't know where my face wash is... and my face feels SO soft. I don't know where the face was is, but I know exactly where my Royalty soaps are.
Team Alice!! They all turned out so awesome. I love that you do kits and show us your mistakes. You are amazing and yes I think raspberry are the sassy fruit.
I make Tarts and candles, I kinda giggled about the tails. I love your colors and glitter. I didn’t think the roses would work and sure enough they turned out the cutest😀😃😃
For the little mermaid ones, don't put as much purple in the base. Leave enough for a clear coating. So put in your purple section. Let it harden. Place your tail and then use clear as a coating over top of the whole thing encasing the tail into the soap.
Hi Katie! I am very much a lurker on RUclips usually but you said to let you know if we liked this video - I LOVED watching you try out wax melts. I'd be so excited if you did another one :)
AND JUST LIKE THAT!...You have brought the art of wax tarts to the next level.💜 They look great! I like both, but Im partial to the glittery mermaid ones. Thanks!!🌻
Seeing this video made me realize a huge missed opportunity! When I got married I should have made candles as favors for guests 😭 oh well haha I loved watching you experiment, my favorite was the Alice in Wonderland, the white with red hearts was just too cute & the roses turned out STUNNING!
I loved them both especially the little chocolate 🍫 bar melts, perhaps you could try an absolum or mad hatter themed bar, explore the other characters from both movies, maybe even use a bit of gold for triton or black shell embeds for Ursula!!
I know the car Freshies you speak of at buccees! From Fredericksburg farms! I work there and have made them before. Thank you for always supporting small business! Go Texan!💕
I love the alice ones! They give cute chocolate bar vibes, imagine them with botanicals? I have no clue if dried flowers are safe for melters, but it does sound pretty as a concept!
Would the Royalty Soaps team ever consider adding wax melts to your regular product catalog? I definitely get if not because that's then more on everyone's plate, Im just curious. We appreciate all that you do and you do more than enough 🥰❤️
Do you think you’d ever sell wax melts in the future? I understand not soon since you’re only doing this for the second time but I love them! I would 100% buy some! Especially the Alice ones 💕
Katie I am in love with them all. But the Roses get my vote, wish it shimmered like mermaid tails. Your vids are the only ones I don't want to miss a second of. And you would be gorgeous with Turquoise hair. It would match your bubbly attitude.
There is no way I could pick between the 2. They're both gorgeous!!! 😍😍 For my melter, I would prefer the smaller squares or rectangles. The disc wouldn't fit without being broken first.
Check out Rakuten for a $30 sign-up bonus! www.rakuten.com/r/ROYALT425 !!!
You put them in a wax warmer and melt them to make your house smell good
Do you know what the melting temp is before pouring the wax in the clamshell molds
(4:28) 😂 what are we making?
After you pour your wax into the mermaid mold take a tooth pick right away and guide the wax into any corners or crevices it didn't reach on its own. That's what I have done.
Honestly, I really appreciate that Katie will just recommend stuff she likes just casually as she goes in a video. Really feels genuine 🥰
I don’t make soap or sell any of these things, but I watch Katie because she is just so dang kind and genuine and her videos make me happy 🥰 and of course her kids are just to adorable to NOT watch ❤️♥️
@@katierobbins7962 I don’t make soap either! I’m also here for Katie’s personality and you’re right…Lily and Will are so stinkin’ adorable!!
Katie, I just wanted to thank you for all of your hard work and for just being you. You seem like an honestly, genuinely nice person and have a great outlook on things. Plus, your products are awesome! Keep being you and have an awesome day.
Seconded! Katie's personality always brightens up any tough day!
That means so much to me. Thanks so much for watching!!
What a sweet thing to say! Couldn’t have said it any better myself. You brighten our days, Katie! 🌼
@@RoyaltySoaps 💗
So true 💖💖✨ she's amazing and beautiful and sweet 🥰
The Alice in Wonderland are so cute! I didn't expect to like them so much.💖

I’m excited to see these come together!

Please wish the new DM a good campaign from my group!
Blueberry muffins with homemade butter? Yes, please and thankyou. I hope the fledgling DM had fun. I'm sure he did great!💕
Another DND player popping in to say good luck to him, hope he has fun! And thank you for providing them snacks, we are such Snack People.
As a fellow DM, I wish him all the best and being vulnerable like that is hard, but he isn't alone
Another fellow D&D player/DM wishing your son good luck in his DMing endeavors!
Oh WOW! Those Rose's and Alice's dress blue! I am SO happy with those. Truly inspiring. Thank you Katie
I love the Alice in Wonderland melt more. I would love to see you make a Nightmare Before Christmas melt.
My girls watched an older video of yours with with me yesterday. Later, my youngest said, "Mom, we are doing something fun for ourselves like Katie said!"

Those roses are everything! They read so well as white roses painted red
I love that even though you sell things, you still encourage us to dig in and try it too!
Love Alice in Wonderland! Trying new things is fun no matter how they turn out. Love your ideas and your initiative to keep trying!
The roses look scrumptious, like some kind of chocolate candy 🌹🖌️⚪

I love how Caroline was like “OH 😳” bc Katie was so prepared for that question 😆 I love the Alice in Wonderland tarts! Both are great, tho.
I love your attitude when a mistake happens, like broken tails.. a giggle and oh well. shows your patience
Alice is my favorite of the two. I loved the two-toned roses 🌹 😍
Lol years of practice! Can't be afraid to fail!
I love the little hearts idea, You could probably do a Birthday cake one and put sprinkles in it like you did the hearts. Love that idea
I love watching your attempts! It makes all my crafting experiments feel fun, too! I loved the little Mermaid wax melts.
So beautiful! I was binge watching your videos cause I'm sick so this came out at the perfect time!!
Hoping you feel better soon!! Thanks for hanging out with meeee
Oh Katie, you look so adorable in the thumbnail. ❤️ the melts.
I got a job for a small business bath product company and I talked about your channel in my interview! Thanks for helping me get this new job ♥️
Loved the roses! Looked caught mid painting. Very cute!
I love all the ideas. I see your mind work at this to make all better. I loved the one white and blue with just Harts.
Katie! If you ever open a physical shop with soap and candles and such, you should call it Royalty Soaps and Scents!
More wax melts would be great. You go girl. Love your creative adventures!
Thank you so much Katie!!! I absolutely just love when you give us these extra videos and the behind the scenes stuff, I swear if you just vlog your life ask the time I would be glued to my screen watching.

I would totally watch another episode of wax melts! Or any other craft you want to do! 😍👏🏽
I love the Katie-tries-crafts videos! inspires me to try a bunch of new things too!
I love the Alice ones! Also, I bought my first candle from the shop this past drop- Flower Fields- and I’m OBSESSED!!! 💜
I loved the Little Mermaid one! I also loved your outro for this video - the very subtle candle lighting and the period cup are great touches! I love all your videos and just bought a 3rd order of soap :)

I love the alice one, it resembles playing cards. Ooo! Could've had glitter of all the suits
Little mermaid all the way for me!! Next time brush tiny amount of metallic mica on the tail for a wow effect and you could get a seashell mold for the base. 😻😻
Thanks for sitting on my vanity while I get ready!! 💕💕💕💕
Super cool ideas!! Would love to see more fun experimenting with wax! Have a superb day Katie! 😄

Excited for this vid! Legit just started watching this past week and I’m obsessed😭
So Fun!!!! Loved both of them. Please do more!!
Hi Katie! I am very much a lurker on RUclips usually but you said to let you know if we liked this video - I LOVED watching you try out wax melts. I'd be so excited if you did another one :)
So exciting that you are doing this. I have a local shop in Lodi Ca called down the rabbit hole that makes a Disney themed wax melts and I love them
Hi Katie glad to see you doing this as I've always wanted to learn was for candles plus the great scent and color have wonderful day dee🌈
I meant wax lol🌈
Katie... I NEED your wax melts in my life!
The Alice in Wonderland snap bars are perfect!
The little mermaid ones are my favorite. The others are nice as well. I really love the purple.
AND JUST LIKE THAT!...You have brought the art of wax tarts to the next level.💜 They look great! I like both, but Im partial to the glittery mermaid ones. Thanks!!🌻
i could see a mid-tone turquoise or dark blue-purple hair looking great on you, katie ^_^ this video is so fun, i love the heart-shaped glitter
I absolutely love the roses! These turned out really well imo
Seeing this video made me realize a huge missed opportunity! When I got married I should have made candles as favors for guests 😭 oh well haha I loved watching you experiment, my favorite was the Alice in Wonderland, the white with red hearts was just too cute & the roses turned out STUNNING!
I really feel like everything you do is so genuine. You are just like an old friend that I feel like I've known forever that is friend to everyone!
also, they are both darling but I love the Ariel one!
Watched this as I prepped my family’s fruit for a few days and tended to my garden and compost. I love Katie’s company! 🥰
I loved them both especially the little chocolate 🍫 bar melts, perhaps you could try an absolum or mad hatter themed bar, explore the other characters from both movies, maybe even use a bit of gold for triton or black shell embeds for Ursula!!
Love these!! Maybe heating up the mermaid tail and then placing it on the wax melt would work. 😃
I see a lot of people make their own molds and create cereals and other treats out of wax. That'd be cool to see!
The snap bars are GORGEOUS and I am inspired to make some myself! ❤️😍
Just in time for my lunch break!!
I'm Irish with pink undertones and pink hair looks great on me! You can totally pull it off
These are adorable love the alice ones
I know the car Freshies you speak of at buccees! From Fredericksburg farms! I work there and have made them before. Thank you for always supporting small business! Go Texan!💕
I love the alice ones! They give cute chocolate bar vibes, imagine them with botanicals? I have no clue if dried flowers are safe for melters, but it does sound pretty as a concept!

I'm so excited to see wax melts! I started watching your videos 2 yrs ago and was inspired to start making qnd selling wax melts on etsy. 😁
Do you think you’d ever sell wax melts in the future? I understand not soon since you’re only doing this for the second time but I love them!
I would 100% buy some! Especially the Alice ones 💕
My vote goes to mermaid wax melt. This was a fun video trying out new craft just for fun.
Katie I am in love with them all. But the Roses get my vote, wish it shimmered like mermaid tails. Your vids are the only ones I don't want to miss a second of. And you would be gorgeous with Turquoise hair. It would match your bubbly attitude.
You should make a time lapse video of melting them. Would be fun to watch (especially as an insta reel/ Tic Tok) :)
I work in the production facility at Scentsy and it’s so interesting to watch how people make these at home!
This was a lot of fun to watch. I'd love to see you give this another go
Awe!! My family and I just love Buc-ees ... we just have to stop every time we see one!!
So happy to have another video! I personally liked the Alice ones better, they were very clean looking designs
There is no way I could pick between the 2. They're both gorgeous!!! 😍😍 For my melter, I would prefer the smaller squares or rectangles. The disc wouldn't fit without being broken first.
The roses are SO cute
Can’t wait to watch this after my work at the library
