Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of clear glue with 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
  • Use a spoon to mix thoroughly until well combined.

Add Color

  • Divide the glue mixture into three smaller bowls.
  • In the first bowl, add a few drops of red food coloring, stirring until you achieve your desired shade.
  • In the second bowl, mix in orange food coloring.
  • In the third bowl, use yellow food coloring to get a sunny yellow hue.

Activate Your Slime

  • To each colored mixture, add 1 tablespoon of contact lens solution.
  • Stir until the slime begins to form and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

Knead the Slime

  • Once the slime is formed, knead it with your hands for a smoother texture.
  • You may want to add more contact solution if it feels too sticky.

Layer the Colors

  • Layer the red, orange, and yellow slimes in a container to create a sunset effect.
  • Gently swirl them together but don’t overdo it to maintain the beautiful gradient.

Notes

Experiment with glitter, foam beads, or essential oils for personalized slime. Store in an airtight container to prevent drying out. For stickiness, knead in more activator.
