No glue
Components required for the preparation of slime:
- thick shampoo;
- shaving foam;
- dye;
- potato starch;
- 0.5 tsp glycerin;
- contact lens fluid.
- Shaving foam and shampoo are mixed in equal proportions.
- Next, the dye of the desired color is dripped.
- Pour glycerin into the mixture, after which the starch is in small portions, until the composition in the bowl looks like a soft sandy plasticine.
- Add 10-12 drops of contact lens fluid to it. It will act as a thickener.
With soda
Due to the content of a detergent from the category of household chemicals, it is recommended to give a slime from baking soda to a small child only in the presence of adults. After playing with such a slime, it is imperative to wash your hands with soap so that the soda does not get on the mucous membranes of the eyes and mouth. Otherwise, severe irritation and chemical burns will occur.
Required Ingredients:
- dishwashing liquid;
- soda;
- water;
- glycerol;
- dyes optional.
- Dishwashing liquid is poured into the container along with the dye. There is no exact dosage, the ingredients are gradually mixed. Detergent can be poured in while kneading.
- Next, pour baking soda, glycerin into a container with a blank, mix everything thoroughly.
- Water is added at the end so that the slime is not too dense. The resulting mass should look viscous, springy in your hands, like rubber.
With hydrogen peroxide
Attention! Hydrogen peroxide makes the slime bouncy, adds density when mixing. But because of the H2O2 bubbles, the toy is not heavy, but airy and light
To create a handgam, the following components are required:
- 250 ml of water;
- 100 g starch;
- 100 ml of PVA glue;
- 2 drops of dye;
- hydrogen peroxide;
- some glycerin to make the slime slippery.
- The starch is mixed with water. The result should be a viscous mass that looks like jelly.
- Then add the dye and glue, mix the composition until smooth.
- Hydrogen peroxide is poured in, mixed until a thick mass is obtained. If it becomes too dense, it can be diluted with water.
Hairspray slime recipes
It has been empirically established that not all varnishes are equally effective in sliding. As a rule, the most affordable will be the most effective for thickening the mass.Among the popular products are called Prelest and Pure Line hair sprays.
If you have products from another manufacturer on hand, it is recommended to test the suitability of such a varnish on a small amount of glue. Only after making sure in practice that all the ingredients are working, proceed to create a slime from hairspray. In this case, reading the composition of the styling product will not clarify the situation, since manufacturers do not always indicate the full composition and concentration of substances acting for slime.
Another challenge in creating hairspray slimes is the lack of precise proportions. It is impossible to calculate the required amount of varnish, since the active substances in its composition differ depending on the manufacturer and the degree of fixation of the varnish. It is recommended to use varnishes of the highest degree of fixation in work, since the concentration of active substances in them is higher.
Hairspray slime with silicate glue
The easiest way to make a hairspray slime is to activate the adhesive with a spray. Slime may not work only if not enough thickener is added. To check the recipe, it is recommended to start with a small amount of glue, and when injecting varnish, bring the sprayer as close as possible to the workware. These simple tips will help you check the recipe without using the entire varnish bottle.
Ingredients:
- silicate glue - 1 tbsp.;
- dye - optional;
- hairspray "Pure Line"
How to make a hairspray slime:
- Pour the glue into the cookware and stir.
- Inject hairspray into the glue and stir until the composition starts to "roll up".
- We repeat the procedure of injecting varnish and mixing until the mass stops sticking to the walls of the dishes.
- If the hairspray slime is loose from the sides of the work bowl, but sticks to your hands, add a pinch of baking soda to the composition and knead well.
In this case, the dye is mixed with the glue until the activation stage. However, it is recommended to use dyes when you are completely confident that the ingredients are working. The slime will turn out to be very elastic, you can even inflate bubbles from it. And at the moment of squeezing the mass, it becomes elastic.
Hairspray slime with PVA glue
Combining several types of adhesives and thickeners is more likely to achieve the desired slime consistency. Foamy textures, in turn, add anti-stress airiness and crunch during squeezing.
Ingredients:
- PVA glue - 50 ml;
- silicate glue - 100 ml;
- hair foam - 50 ml;
- sodium tetraborate - 1 tsp;
- strong hold hairspray
How to make a hairspray slime:
- Thoroughly mix PVA glue and silicate in a working container.
- Add hair foam to the glue mixture and stir until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
- You can add dye to the liquid mixture if desired, but before proceeding to the next step, achieve an even distribution of tones in the mass.
- Hairspray should be added as the first thickener. The amount of spray varies depending on the manufacturer. But to obtain a tangible effect of folding the mass, as a rule, 6-10 pressings on the balloon are enough.
- Add sodium tetraborate and knead with your hands.
Regardless of the recipe and the amount of ingredients, the peculiarity of working with varnish in slime is its long-term mixing. In some cases, it may take up to 30 minutes. There is no way to speed up the process.
But not only glue bases are suitable for creating hairspray slimes. A slime that is soft in texture will turn out if you thicken the mask-film for the face with varnish. Depending on the amount of activator, you can make a finger slime or an elastic original.
Important! Since hairspray comes in the form of an aerosol, which in most cases has a pungent smell, it is best to create a slime with it in a well-ventilated area or in a respirator.
With starch
Thanks to the starch in the composition, this slime turns out to be very soft, but not a spreading puddle. And you do not need to use glue, the specified volume of the mask-film is enough. That is, the toy turns out to be not only beautiful, but also cheap.
Easy recipe
- 14 ml film mask,
- 2 tbsp. l. starch
- 1 tsp hand creams,
- 5-6 st. l. shaving foam,
- 3-4 drops of gouache,
- 0.5-1 tsp solution for lenses.
Slime preparation method
The basis of the toy is a film mask, which is moved into a cup.
Hand cream is squeezed out to it.
The components are mixed for 2-3 minutes.
For volume and lightness of the toy, shaving foam is added to them.
The composition is mixed again, but carefully so that the foam does not settle.
The next ingredient is starch.
The base is mixed again so that it becomes homogeneous.
It's time to give the future slime a color, that is, add pigment, you can silver paint, and still work with a spatula.
The last required component is lens solution.
After adding it in portions, the base is thoroughly mixed with a spoon.
The thickened mass must be crumpled in the hands.

What is slime
Slime is a gooey toy first released by Mattel in 1976. The mass consists of a jelly-like material that has the properties of a non-Newtonian liquid.
The toy looks like slime, but does not spill, it is easy to shape. In appearance, the slime resembles a jelly mass. When the child picks it up, he is grasped by a viscous colored liquid that relieves stress. The toy is bright, it comes in different shades, with or without sparkles. Slime attracts children of all ages, sometimes even adults.
There are on sale slimes with foam balls in the form of filler. They clink, crunch remarkably. In addition to balls, the slime can also contain many cubes made of adsorbent substances, toy figures.
Components for slime
To make a glossy slime, preliminary preparation of the following components will be required:
- 100-120 milliliters of clear glue;
- 100-120 milliliters of PVA glue;
- 1 tablespoon water
- ½ tablespoon of fatty cream or lotion;
- ½ tablespoon of clear, gel-like soap (shower gel or shampoo);
- an incomplete teaspoon of body oil or unscented vegetable oil;
- sodium tetraborate solution as a thickener, borax, or lens cleaner;

In addition to the components for the slime, preparation of containers for preparation will also be required: a deep bowl, a container with a small lid, a teaspoon, a tablespoon. The utensils used for the preparation of slime should not be further used for cooking.
Before cooking, it is also important to protect yourself from the harmful effects of the components that make up the slime. This will require medical gloves, overalls and an apron.
Tips & Tricks
Often the slime does not turn out the way you want to see it. It either sticks to your hands, or is very liquid, or turns into a piece of plasticine, which is difficult to wrinkle in your hands. To prevent this from happening and the antistress to be of optimal form, it is necessary to correctly follow the order of immersion of the ingredients. The proportions may differ slightly depending on the quality of the products (one glue is thicker, etc.). You should be guided by logic, sometimes you have to add more volume
It is worth paying attention to the tips:
- if the slime is too liquid and refuses to keep its shape, then you need to put the bowl with it on low heat and evaporate the excess liquid;
- if the product does not stretch, but simply breaks, then it is worth adding more glue and carefully crushing the mass with your hands;
- if the slime is hard like a stone, then you need to add a couple of drops of water and send it in a glass jar to a dark room - it will soften after absorbing moisture.
The product takes on extraneous odors, so the problem of cleaning it is always relevant. You can just hold the slime under running water for a couple of minutes, but this does not guarantee complete elimination of the unpleasant odor. It is better to cover it with soda for a couple of hours and send it to rest in a dark room. After rinsing and drying, treat with aromatic tea tree oil. The toy does not accept hot temperatures, therefore it is prohibited to dry it with a hairdryer. They also do not use deodorants or perfumes - they will temporarily mask the aromas, but will not completely remove them.
