CIY Staff Tips:

If slime is still too sticky after adding 3 tsp contact lens solution, add extra contact lens solution in small increments until the slime mixture easily slides out of the bowl. If needed, add a small amount of contact lens solution to your hands and rub them together before removing the slime from the bowl.
Adult supervision required. This project is not appropriate for children under the age of 3 years. Warning: If large quantities of contact lens solution are accidentally ingested (greater than a tablespoon), get medical attention immediately.
To keep slime from drying out, keep it in a resealable plastic bag or airtight container.

Steps:

Pour 3/4 cup glue, 1/8 tsp baking soda, and 1 Tbsp lotion into a bowl, stirring well with a craft stick until completely mixed.

Dissolve 2–3 watercolour tablets in 1/4 cup warm water and stir until completely dissolved. Pour half of the coloured water into the glue mixture.

Add contact lens solution in 1/2 tsp increments. Mix the contact lens solution in each time it’s added, up until 3 tsp have been added or until the slime mixture is easily coming off the bowl.
