What ingredients are needed for a slime?
Glitter Slime is a shiny slime. From a distance it seems that it is strewn with precious stones. To make a toy, you will need small sparkles for needlework, manicure, paper crafts. Glitter is sold in stationery stores, in cosmetics departments.
Beginner slimers should remember: not every kind of glitter is suitable for a sparkling handgam. Do not put any jewelry in the slime formula. They are too large, with sharp edges; when kneading the mass, they can cut the skin. Use only fine glitter. It is best if they are mixed with a gel base, which allows them to be evenly distributed over the slime.
In addition to glitter, you will need the main components and an activator:
- stationery glue (preferably silicate);
- detergents (shower gel, liquid detergent, dishwashing detergent);
- shaving foam;
- sodium tetraborate;
- soda, salt, sugar;
- lens fluid;
- mask-film and others.
This list can be continued depending on the result that the slider wants to get. If you use silicate glue, the handgam comes out translucent, similar to space. From PVA, slime turns out to be less attractive, matte, but also beautiful.
When choosing a glitter slime recipe, think about the result. Give preference to formulations of components that are found in the house, will be non-toxic and will not harm your health.
To make the shiny slime come out viscous, elastic, follow the recommendations:
- Use sodium tetraborate as an activator. It thickens well. But you need to add it drop by drop so as not to overgrow the mixture, otherwise the slime will come out tight.
- Use food or acrylic dyes to make colored slimes. They are bright, keep the shade well.
- Transparent slime comes out of silicate glue, it looks more spectacular. Matte slime is obtained from PVA.
- Reduce toxic ingredients. Slime is easy to make without glue, tetraborate, replacing them with available safe components (shampoo, soda).
- If the product is liquid, it contains excess moisture. Adding table salt will help get rid of it.
- If during storage the slime has lost its elasticity, place it in water for 2-3 hours.

Main ingredients
Children love everything shiny. But they are also crazy about slimes. Why not combine these two sympathies and make a shiny slime yourself? This does not require expensive components. You can buy glitter slime, but it's easier to make it yourself.
Ever wondered why children like glitter slime more? There are a number of psychological explanations for this:
- brighter, more attractive;
- shimmers and soothes the nervous system;
- looks presentable, more expensive, perceived as an elite toy;
- you are not ashamed to boast of a brilliant slime in front of your friends, thereby increasing your status.
The main component of the handgam is glitter or glitter gel. It is sold in toy or stationery stores, comes in different shades, and is inexpensive. If you can't get glitter, use dry glitter. They are mixed into the main composition, achieving uniform distribution in the mass.
In addition to glitter, the following are involved in the manufacture of slime:
- glue;
- detergents;
- cosmetic components (creams, foams, lotions);
- activators (borax, washing gel, hair balm, etc.);
- air plasticine;
- soda, salt, powdered sugar.
Whichever components you choose, sparkles will perfectly complement the composition. They combine well with glue, adhere to it and are evenly distributed over the surface of the slime.
Notice how the glitter slime shimmers in the light. Every kid will want to get such a toy.
Without tetraborate
With this method of creating slime glitter, the activator is added in portions. Percil does not stabilize the glue as quickly as tetraborate, so there is a risk of pouring in too much gel and getting a tight mass. Sequins should be chosen to match the color of the base, that is, white, silver or green, like a thickening gel.
Cooking method
- Pour the glue into a container.
- After stirring, add Persil to it.
- In the liquid, work with a spoon until curdling.
- Then the mass is necessarily kneaded in the hands so that it sticks and does not spread.
- The base is ready, and decor is added to it.
- Knead the mass again with your hands.
