As always, we strongly recommend that an adult measure and handle all chemicals used when making slime and close adult supervision when young children are playing with slime.

2. Add 1 cup shaving cream.  Shaving cream is a bit funky to measure but a little extra won’t hurt.

4. Mix well.  Your slime should be super foamy.

5. Add in 1 tsp of cornstarch and about 1 tsp of body lotion.  These will help your slime stretch and make it nice and fluffy.

6. Pour in the rainbow foam beads.

8. Next add in ¾ – 1 tsp of baking soda. Start with ¾ of a tsp and add more during kneading if you need to. Baking soda is what will thicken your slime up.

9. Finally, add in the contact saline solution.  Start with 1 tbsp. If you need to add a bit more, add as needed.  Saline solution makes the slime less sticky. You will know you have enough when the slime pulls away from the side of the bowl.

10. Knead the slime.
