Instructions
Empty a 4 oz bottle of white Glue into a plastic bowl.
Add in approximately 1/2 cup of shaving cream.
Add in a few drops of food coloring. You can always add more if you want your slime more vibrant.
Stir all ingredients together until thoroughly mixed.
Pump about 5 pumps of the foaming hand soap into the mixture and stir. This will fluff up the slime even more.
Add in 3/4 tablespoon of baking soda.
Squeeze in a small amount of saline solution to your mixture and stir
Keep stirring and continue this process until slime starts to pull away from sides of the plastic bowl. Once it starts to pull away from bowl, take it out and start kneading with your hands. You've been forewarned... slime may be sticky at this point, but stay with it. The more you knead slime, the less sticky it is. If it is still too sticky, slowly squeeze in more solution. Stir or knead the slime until it is less sticky and easy to pull. If you add too much saline solution it will break down the slime and change the texture, possibly resulting in a mushy effect.
