Ingredients
-
1 cup white school glue (PVA glue)
-
½ teaspoon baking soda
-
1 tablespoon bubble gum scented oil
-
2–3 drops pink food coloring
-
1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for extra fluffiness)

1–2 tablespoons contact lens solution (must contain boric acid)
Instructions
-
Pour the white school glue into a mixing bowl.
-
Add the baking soda and stir until fully combined.
-
Mix in the bubble gum scented oil and pink food coloring. Stir well.
-
If using, add the cornstarch for a fluffier texture. Stir until smooth.
-
Slowly add 1 tablespoon of contact lens solution while stirring. The slime will start to thicken.
-
Continue adding a few more drops of contact lens solution until the slime pulls away from the bowl.
-
Knead the slime with your hands for 2-3 minutes until it becomes stretchy and smooth.
-
If the slime is too sticky, add a few more drops of contact lens solution and knead again.
-
Play with your slime and store it in an airtight container when not in use.
Notes
-
For a shinier slime, add a drop of baby oil.
-
If the slime is too stiff, mix in a little lotion to soften it.
-
Store in an airtight container to keep it fresh for longer.
