Create fluffy slime that has a fantastic texture you will want to play with again and again! This pretty slime contains NO borax and is made using a combination of PVA glue, shaving foam and contact lens solution.

You Will Need:-

• A Bowl

• A Wooden Spoon or spatula

• Teaspoon

• Tablespoon

• Half a cup of PVA Glue –

We used Ryman Coloured PVA Glue - If you haven't got coloured PVA you can add a couple of squirts of poster paint into your glue to colour it.

• 2 Heaped Tablespoons of Shaving Foam

• Half a heaped teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda

• One tablespoon of Contact Lens Solution (must contain boric acid)

• 2/4 Heaped teaspoons of cornflour – this will thicken your slime if needed and also prevent it from sticking to your hands!

• Glitter

Method

#1 Measure half a cup of PVA glue into a cup and tip into the large bowl

#2 Measure half teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and add to the bowl along with 2 tablespoon of shaving foam.

#3 Next measure a tablespoon of the Contact Lens Solution and add to the mixture.

You can now begin to stir the ingredients together, noticing how the texture begins to change from runny to thick and gloopy. You can now begin to knead the mixture with your hands....

#4 If your mixture is looking too runny you can now thicken it using the cornflour –add a teaspoon at a time until you have the consistency that you want! There is no right and wrong with slime… just have fun!

#5 Finally add your favourite glitter to create glimmering, fluffy slime you won’t want to put down! Have fun pulling, stretching, rolling and squeezing your slime. Don’t forget to store our slime in an airtight tub or container once you have finished playing with it to keep it moist.
