I love your embarrassing storey! Such a 90's girl experience! My sister, BFF, and I made a choreographed dance to Hit me Baby one more time. So i FEEL you here!
Kate, I’m so impressed with your focus in HS to commitment to soap making! Yes, I wish you all the prom nights too. So proud of your ability to create a soap that TOTALLY nails the album cover.
My kiddo is a freshman this year. They're really worried about things, and i really try to encourage them to just enjoy the time with their friends because it truly is a blip in time.
I performed Teardrops on my Guitar as part of Year 11 or 12 music class. We were a group of four... piano, guitar, two singers, and me on flute. We did a decent job!
Gorgeous! Always gorgeous❤ love the butterfly. I went to prom twice (junior and senior) and didn’t like either much. I did like that I got to dance with friends I wouldn’t have otherwise. I think my hubby (who was there, but not my date😂) has some blackmail worthy pics of me from senior prom. 🤫 your dedication to your craft and your business shows! Well done, my dear!
I got a perm when I was 13 inspired by Taylor’s curls! And I also had my hair done like the Love Story music video for my 8th grade dance. I was obsessed!
Glad you're enjoying adulthood after such tumultuous teen years! What a fun video, and what a gorgeous soap. Really loving those gold butterflies - that's a motif I'd personally love to see more of.
Beautiful soap! I wish I would have dedicated myself more to my studies (even though I already struggled) and wasn't so boy crazy. I wasn't terrible, but I feel like I could have gotten farther in my life. You have such a wholesome story. 😊
I totally thought you were going to do a gold butterfly stamp but I love the butterfly embed! Also the water-looking theme reminded me of "the moon like a spotlight on the lake" from Tim McGraw
girl, I feel you on looking back on high school and just sighing at how much I felt like everything was so important and the end of the world... I have been telling my younger sister that it is really not that deep and I hope it has helped her
It's interesting to see how much people enjoy Taylor Swift. My mom told me about how her and her sister knew her when they were kids, not that they were friends but they did go ice skating at the same place. She's told me they didn't really know each other bc taylor had a coach, and they very much couldn't afford that even if they wanted to.
pretty pretty soap. I had to look it up as I was convinced I had left Highschool before TS was born and found she's from december 1989 and I;m from december 1969 so give or take a few days exactly 20 years older! I've heard some things, but I don't really know her music.
This is one awesome soap. All the colors working together. Yes we all see as adults that all the heart aches and breakups that we go through in High school and middle school is just part of understanding and figuring out who we are and just where we will go from there. Love all your talks through all your videos. Thank you and enjoy the rest of your day.
I know lots of people don't like it but i frickin love chartreuse... Its like a magical point in between yellow and green and i love it. One of my favourite colours to wear.
And her curls came after a long period of VERY STRAIGHT hair. My daughter remembers when her naturally curly hair was suddenly the coolest thing, after years of being told she needed to get a hair straightener. :P
I worked in a bridal shop for 4 years and the number of times we heard those early T Swift songs, I wanted to break the radio! But if you step away from that and listen to all her other music, it is good.
Dang. I wish I had seen this video earlier and hadn't missed this launch. Those are very beautiful soap and I would have loved to get my hands on one. Great job!
I'm so proud of you for staying home and doing your Royalty soaps thing instead of going to prom. I never went to prom. I wasn't much of a dress girl back then and I'd much rather spend all that money staying home and drinking with some friends. I honestly don't even know what night prom was. I was so caught up in my own thing that it just didn't matter to me at all and I'm kind of proud of young me for my bold decisions at that age. I don't regret not going. I didn't have very many friends at my high school anyway and I still don't talk to people from high school.
Prom is just a fancy school dance, at mine they played Every Time We Touch -Cascada version. I'm glad I went just to say that I went even if I had no date (ace). You shouldn't regret not going because in my opinion you had a better thing starting.
Also ace, no date, and went to prom with a group of friends. If you've got something else going on good on you! I did not haha, but I loved it because it was the first time I stayed out late (5 AM). I was very much a "good girl"
I’ve been telling my nephew and niece FORVER that teenage years are NOT everything! Don’t rush to grow up! Don’t worry about these jerks in high school cause you’ll never think of them again after you leave! I think it was easier for them to hear me because I’m only 10 years older than them
Well, if high school wasn't all that important, than you definitely made the right choice on Prom!! Love the blue soaps, myself! And I am all here for soap facts!
I have never been a massive fan, one of my besties is though and i heard the Reputation album so much on a road trip that it really grew on me. But your passion is still so lovely to witness. I would watch you make anything probably, but i just love when you are so excited!
Rather than being embarrassed about the video you made, be proud of your creativity. I know I would be. good on you for doing it. It sounds amazing! Even if it's a cringey job, the fact that you did it is awesome. Such imagination. You always demonstrate your creativity and commitment, and that's fantastic. Love your work.
I love this soap kaite!!! The gold butterflies are the perfect touch for debut!! I was actually 9 when debut came out and 10 when fearless came out. I really want to see you try a fearless and red soap!!! And reputation. I love the ones you've done so far. This is my favorite!
I am really, really hoping i can order from this launch. My niece absolutely loved taylor and even when to her concert before covid. I would love to get all my nieces a bar from the collection
Oh my goodness I remember the Taylor Swift Myspace page, good memories. Also I didn't go to prom either and I don't regret it. But I have bad social anxiety so that was a factor. 😂 The soap looks so pretty, I love the butterfly!
I looooooveed this album. I am going to overshare here, I was in high school when I was over at one of my best friend's house who had fancy cable tv and was flicking through the channels when I came across Teardrops on my guitar playing on the country music channel and I was instantly hooked (lol the curls) and immediately noted it down to download later. When I got home I jumped online and downloaded the full album (LimeWire probs idk) & loved it hard haha. I was 13 turning 14 when TS debut came out, and she proceeded to release albums at key points in my life as I grew into a now-30 year old. I will forever have a soft spot for TS, because it still blows my mind that she was to me an amazing lucky find and she turned into an record-breaking international megastar/household name. 😂 Oh & the soap was cute af ♥️😂
The summer get Romeo and Juliet song came out, I had a summer program. My roommate had to play that song every morning to get me out of bed lol. But once she quit country, that was really the last time I listened to her. Now I'm 30 and into kpop lol
I didn't go to prom either, but you were more industrious than I was. I think I was just moody and didn't want to go.🤣 tickets and dresses were expensive too
I have an embarrassing story about Picture To Burn, lol. You at least have a flash drive. We had a 6th grade talent show and I chose that song to sing. I started singing, my evil science teacher kicked the plug out of the boom box we were using for all of the CDs. I froze in front of my entire 6th grade class. Once it was plugged back in and started over, I was still frozen and my entire class either stared or sang to try and help me get out of my nerves. It's been over 16 years and it still haunts me to this day. Your story sounds like something fun to look back on, lol.
I'm pretty sure this can compete with your music video: somewhere out there there is a recording of The Crucible (as in the Salem witch trials play) enacted by Barbie dolls voiced by 3 teenagers...which was actually played in front of the class, in highschool.
Somewhere, a photo exists of my friend and her two sisters dressed as the Spice Girls sprawled around her couch. I was Baby Spice. It's rare for a day to go by when I'm not thankful social media wasn't a thing when I was growing up.
When he debut album came out I was like 13 and had just broken up with the neighbor boy. I would play this album in a boom box on the porch and sing as loud as I could hoping he would hear me, it was so dramatic. But on a more serious note Taylor swifts music was so important to me as a teen. It helped me process my emotions and know that other people went through it too.
Y'all I can't even. I'm definitely buying this soap. But I don't even know if I want to use it haha. This was an outstanding color pallet. She's the reason for the teardrops on my soap bar. This soaps so gorgeous.
Yaassss shout out for the scene and goth kids. Sorry mother it wasn't just a phase lol. I feel like if someone told me high school didn't matter as much as I thought it did at the time, I probably wouldn't have listened anyway haha
My year cancelled our school prom because the venue was one of the cheapest function rooms available but they tried to charge £100 a ticket. We all just went down a nightclub instead (you only have to be 18 years old in the UK so we normally got into clubs at 16). Back in the days when they didn't check IDs 😂
Do you use the recommended amount of colorants / mica to color your soap? Example: Sea Glass is 1.5 - 2 Tsp per pound of oils. It just seems too much to me.
Oh Im hoping Katie noticed the missing teardrop after she switched the camera off. I think your dedication to royalty soap was worth skipping prom for. I agree that blue soaps are more popular, as I always love the blue one, second is purple.
Love this soap! ❤️❤️❤️20 years ago, the boy that tried to bully me because I was really skinny as a teenager, said to me: 'you look like Taylor Swift'. I did not know who that was back then so I assumed that it was something bad. Turns out, it was a compliment? It was so confusing hahahaha.
Hey, that story isn't embarrassing! That's what kids do! You gotta enjoy your life without worrying about what future you will judge you for. Also, every part of your life is important! And when you're 17, 4 years of your life is nearly a quarter of your life!
also, i went to prom and deeply regretted it - I had my first ever anxiety attack on the drive back! preparing for a craft fair sounds like a much better use of time and money
Just saying; I was a mallgoth in high school, I'da still been friends with you, you have fun energy. Seems like you've "cracked the code" as well. XD! Also! I'm able to cut the soap bars with a sturdy plastic knife. A flimsy one probably wouldn't cut it, but a sturdy one should work fine!
Taylor needs to see this. You deserve to have Taylor see this. You have knocked this out of every stadium she has ever performed in. omg 😍
Oh I saw.... 😂
@@Taylor-wt9zv mission accomplished then 😎
A round of applause for Caleb's edits, please 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Yaaasss😂👏👏👏
You've captured the essence of Debut... Late girl hood, frills and sunshine things 🦋
I can see blue soaps selling well, I always associate cool colors and specifically blue with things like cleanliness and soothing. Don't know why, but it makes sense
Fun idea for a soap series! Going back to high school: The goth, the princess, the nerd, the jock, etc. 😆
omg yes
Between the Eras Tour & this soap collection,
"I am never going to financially recover from this." 😂
Same!
blue soaps probably sell better bc theyre usually water scented honestly. i know my huge bias towards ocean scents means most of my bath products are blue
Katie, you’re a joy to be around and the soap … beautiful !!!
I love your embarrassing storey! Such a 90's girl experience! My sister, BFF, and I made a choreographed dance to Hit me Baby one more time. So i FEEL you here!
I'll never forget my sister and I's ACAPELLA version of Sexyback 😂😂😂
Kate, I’m so impressed with your focus in HS to commitment to soap making! Yes, I wish you all the prom nights too. So proud of your ability to create a soap that TOTALLY nails the album cover.
Oh Katie, it's perfect!! I was never a Swiftie but this soap is just gorgeous, and matches it's inspo to a t!
I also remember thinking that the Love Story music video was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen!! It was such a vibe.
Omg the perfect heart in the frosting tip at 09:45! Bottom soap, 6th in from the left. 😍
My kiddo is a freshman this year. They're really worried about things, and i really try to encourage them to just enjoy the time with their friends because it truly is a blip in time.
My oldest two daughters did her early hairstyle for their senior proms back in the day. Iconic!
My goodness. I haven’t seen your videos in almost two years. You’ve grown so much how exciting for you and your family. Congrats!
I LOVE this color palette, I would love to see more soaps in this style!
I performed Teardrops on my Guitar as part of Year 11 or 12 music class. We were a group of four... piano, guitar, two singers, and me on flute. We did a decent job!
Katie is the reason for the cleanliness of my skin,
The only one who makes them pretty enough for me to buy a bar
You talking about being drawn to the scene/emo kids is soo relatable. I remember "stalking" my classmates MySpace pages, admiring their pictures.
I CANT WAIT FOR THE EVERMORE AND FOLKLORE SOAPS
Love the two tone frosting
I always LOVE love your blue soaps :) I love how colorful and vibrant this collection is, definitely brings back my childhood ish days!
Gorgeous! Always gorgeous❤ love the butterfly. I went to prom twice (junior and senior) and didn’t like either much. I did like that I got to dance with friends I wouldn’t have otherwise.

Glad you're enjoying adulthood after such tumultuous teen years! What a fun video, and what a gorgeous soap. Really loving those gold butterflies - that's a motif I'd personally love to see more of.
Honestly you didn’t miss anything by not going to prom. I kinda wish I didn’t go, it was little boring.😂
Yup, both times. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I love when you wear purple eyeshadow! 😍
Beautiful soap! I wish I would have dedicated myself more to my studies (even though I already struggled) and wasn't so boy crazy. I wasn't terrible, but I feel like I could have gotten farther in my life. You have such a wholesome story. 😊

These are my fave colors! I chop off the frosting so I have two bars to enjoy! I love your soaps!
I know lots of people don't like it but i frickin love chartreuse... Its like a magical point in between yellow and green and i love it. One of my favourite colours to wear.
I know it's silly but it brings me such peace and happiness to see that your spatula color matches the color of your green haha. 3:38
Oh my goodness this is PHENOMENAL! So many memories from this album
And her curls came after a long period of VERY STRAIGHT hair. My daughter remembers when her naturally curly hair was suddenly the coolest thing, after years of being told she needed to get a hair straightener. :P
This was the first album I put on my first ipod at age 11! The nostalgia!
I worked in a bridal shop for 4 years and the number of times we heard those early T Swift songs, I wanted to break the radio! But if you step away from that and listen to all her other music, it is good.
Very pretty. I will be ordering the conditioner bar in this scent so I will be watching 😊
Dang. I wish I had seen this video earlier and hadn't missed this launch. Those are very beautiful soap and I would have loved to get my hands on one. Great job!

When you said there'd be butterflies in the intro, I honestly thought you were going to do a butterfly swirl. I had no idea you had butterfly inbeds🦋
Royalty Soaps was definitely the best decision you made! 😊 You didn't miss anything, prom was boring and a waste of money.
Not a fan of T S but the soap is lovely💙💚
I am really, really hoping i can order from this launch. My niece absolutely loved taylor and even when to her concert before covid. I would love to get all my nieces a bar from the collection
Love these, thanks Katie for all that you do. I appreciate you.
Oh my goodness I remember the Taylor Swift Myspace page, good memories. Also I didn't go to prom either and I don't regret it. But I have bad social anxiety so that was a factor. 😂 The soap looks so pretty, I love the butterfly!
Love this soap. It's so sparkly and the colours are amazing. ❤
Yup...gunna need me some T Swizzle soap now!!!
Oh Katie! My first bar of your soap is three kings….it’s sitting on my dresser! 😂😂 I can’t bring myself to open it! ❤
Katie you should throw a prom bday party for your next birthday party. That would be so fun and you would get to wear a prom dress!

Beautiful! Where did the butterfly mold come from, if you don't mind me asking.

I didn't go to prom either, but you were more industrious than I was. I think I was just moody and didn't want to go.🤣 tickets and dresses were expensive too
I was VERY skeptical about that chartreuse color....but not bad!
i love this series
We did high school together Katie! You, me, and your early videos, I still love watching those! ♥️♥️
I have an embarrassing story about Picture To Burn, lol. You at least have a flash drive. We had a 6th grade talent show and I chose that song to sing.

The editing on this video had me rolling with laughter!
Loving this soap collection!
I NEED THIS SOAP! 💙😭🦋
Somewhere, a photo exists of my friend and her two sisters dressed as the Spice Girls sprawled around her couch. I was Baby Spice. It's rare for a day to go by when I'm not thankful social media wasn't a thing when I was growing up.
Ok!! So you need to have a prom now! Just to get a fancy prom dress and Caleb a tux and go out to eat and dance on the square!! 🎉❤
Some time I am happy it is just soap. I really like your content. No problems no politics just a pretty video to look to
When he debut album came out I was like 13 and had just broken up with the neighbor boy.

This is so adorable ❤ I love it!
Do you have a shampoo bar for grey hair???
I also did not go to prom. I’ll be 32 this week and have never regretted that decision lol
That is a beautiful soap.
I really don't need more soap, however this soap is gorgeous!!!!
My year cancelled our school prom because the venue was one of the cheapest function rooms available but they tried to charge £100 a ticket. We all just went down a nightclub instead (you only have to be 18 years old in the UK so we normally got into clubs at 16). Back in the days when they didn't check IDs 😂
At 5:46, who sees the horse running in the bottom soap?
Do you use the recommended amount of colorants / mica to color your soap? Example: Sea Glass is 1.5 - 2 Tsp per pound of oils. It just seems too much to me.
I miss my prom because I was sick with black fever. Even my date show up with flowers to cheer me up. . Anyway nice soap 🎉
I had the Love story hair for prom and it was marvelous 😂
Oh Im hoping Katie noticed the missing teardrop after she switched the camera off.
I think your dedication to royalty soap was worth skipping prom for. I agree that blue soaps are more popular, as I always love the blue one, second is purple.
Where do you get your shipping boxes from?

Soap thats more fun than prom!
'Tim McGraw' is one of my favorite songs of all time. And I'm old as dirt!
I can confirm the softness of the soaps. I was able to cut one with an exacto knife. Not that I recommmend it x)
Hey, that story isn't embarrassing! That's what kids do! You gotta enjoy your life without worrying about what future you will judge you for.
Also, every part of your life is important! And when you're 17, 4 years of your life is nearly a quarter of your life!
Girl, everything you said: SAME. 🙌🏼
also, i went to prom and deeply regretted it - I had my first ever anxiety attack on the drive back! preparing for a craft fair sounds like a much better use of time and money
Oops! You missed a tear drop. I love this one, really pretty! 💞
