How to make two-ingredient slime?
Slime is a trendy anti-stress toy that has become quite popular with children. You can not only buy it in the store, but also make it yourself. To prepare the simplest version of slime, you need only two components. How to cook such a lizun at home with your own hands, we will tell you below.
Making from shampoo
Making a slime from 2 ingredients with your own hands at home is not so difficult. To do this, you only need two available ingredients - toothpaste and shampoo. If you want, you can add a couple of drops of liquid dye to give the slime the color you want.
The preparation of such a slime is as follows:
- You will need to mix 1 to 4 toothpaste and thick shampoo in a bowl;
- after that, the mass must be stirred so that it becomes homogeneous;
- then the container in which you mixed the two components is placed in the refrigerator for an hour and a half so that the mass solidifies;
- if this time was not enough for your slime, then the mass can be placed in the freezer for another half hour;
- after the required time, the slime needs to be thoroughly kneaded in the palms, during which it will become elastic and viscous.
There is another shampoo-based slime recipe. You will need 3 parts of Titan glue and 2 parts of any thick shampoo. All components must be mixed well so that the mass thickens. Put the mass in a cold place for half an hour or an hour, and then knead it in your hands.
If you wish, during the preparation process, you can add a few drops of dye or glitter to the mixture to make the slime more beautiful in the end.
Cologne slime
Cologne is also a good ingredient to make a slime toy at home. Firstly, thanks to the cologne, the slime will have a certain smell. Secondly, cologne is usually made on the basis of ethyl alcohol, which acts as an activator for stationery glue. Therefore, a slime made with the addition of cologne will stretch.
So, to make such a slime from two components, you will need a pre-prepared container, 50 milliliters of stationery glue, 1.5 teaspoons of cologne and, if desired, a dye.
The process looks like this:
- glue and cologne must be mixed in a container, this must be done carefully and for a long time, during the mixing process you will be able to observe how the mass begins to thicken, while it is necessary to monitor the consistency so that the slime does not turn out to be too thick;
- if necessary, add a few more drops of cologne to the mass;
- after that, the slime needs to be thoroughly kneaded in your hands and squeezed a little to remove excess moisture, if necessary.
Other recipes
There are other options for making slime.
From plasticine
Plasticine is also a suitable ingredient for making your own slime at home. Thanks to this component, you don't even have to use a dye. In order for the slime to acquire the color you want, it will be enough to choose a plasticine block of the color you need.
- So, to make a slime according to this recipe, you will need one plasticine block of the color you need, one glass of heated water and one pack of gelatin. First of all, it is necessary to pour water into a previously prepared container and pour gelatin there in a thin stream. The two ingredients need to be mixed well. At the same time, make sure that the mass is homogeneous, without lumps. After that, the resulting mixture should be left for an hour so that the gelatin swells.
- After an hour, this mixture must be heated over low heat, while constantly stirring so that it does not boil. During this heating process, all the gelatin should dissolve.
- Next, the mixture must be allowed time to cool. At this time, you can take a plasticine block and knead it thoroughly in your palms so that it becomes softened, warm and plastic. After that, plasticine must be mixed with 100 grams of heated water. Please note that the plasticine must be completely mixed with the liquid.
- By this time, the gelatinous mass should cool down. It should be gradually and carefully poured into the clay. After that, the mixture needs to be stirred well and put in a cold place for half an hour or an hour. During this time, the mass should fully thicken. Remove the slime from the refrigerator and knead it in your hands. Everything! If you wish, you can buy special sequins to decorate the slime with.
Edible
Edible slime is not intended for play, but for eating, but despite this, any child will be happy with it. There are many recipes for making edible slime. However, keep in mind that before eating such a slime, you need to make sure that the child is not allergic to this or that component.
So let's get down to cooking.
The first recipe requires peanut butter and marshmallow marshmallows. For cooking, you need 2 marshmallows and 1 tablespoon of peanut butter. First of all, the marshmallow needs to be heated in the oven so that it is more elastic and viscous. Further, marshmallow and paste are poured into the container, all this is mixed, so that, as a result, a viscous homogeneous mass is obtained. After that, the slime must be cooled in the refrigerator or on the balcony. As a rule, this takes no more than an hour.
After the required time, the slime will be ready, you can safely eat it.
The second two-ingredient slime recipe requires homemade Fruit & Tella gummies and powdered sugar.To make slime, you need 20 pieces of candy and 5-6 tablespoons of another component.
First of all, sweets are cleaned of candy wrappers and poured into a certain container, after which they are melted in a water bath. Powdered sugar is poured into a separate plate. Pour the powder into the melted mass of gummy candies and knead thoroughly so that it is elastic, viscous, does not stick to your hands and, in general, looks like dough. Ready!
There is another recipe for edible slime. For it, you will need any spices, Gouda cheese or any other, except processed cheese.
The cheese needs to be placed in a heat-resistant container and put in the microwave for a while to melt. Check the condition of your cheese periodically. It must not be allowed to completely melt. Otherwise, it will simply spread and dry out. Remove the cheese from the microwave when it has softened and let it cool.
After that, add the necessary spices to it and knead it well, so that as a result you get a plastic and viscous mass. Cheese slime is ready!
You can also make a slime from 2 liters of Sprite or other carbonated water such as Fanta or Coca-Cola, as well as 0.5 kg of powdered sugar.
Soda water must be poured into an enamel container and put on a slow fire, while stirring constantly. When the liquid thickens and decreases in volume, it should be poured into another container and allowed to cool down to room temperature. After that, the resulting mass is poured onto a plate with powdered sugar and kneaded thoroughly by hand.
From water and starch
You don't need to use glue, sodium tetraborate, or shaving foam to make a slime at home. To prepare the slime, there will be enough water and starch. To prepare slime from them, the components must be taken in the same quantity. The water will need to be slightly warmed up, after which dry starch can be gradually introduced into it, while constantly stirring the mass so that it thickens. To achieve the consistency you want, you can add a little more dry matter. Put the mass in the refrigerator, and then knead it in your hands. Slime is ready!
Recommendations
When preparing slime, one should not neglect the dosages of certain components. Otherwise, the toy may simply not work: it will be either too thick or, on the contrary, too stringy and sticky.
It is not worth frequenting with the preparation of sweet edible slimes. This delicious treat, if consumed constantly, can harm a child's teeth and body.
Play with homemade or store-bought slime with clean hands on a clean surface so that it does not get smeared. If this does happen, then all large specks from the slime must be removed with tweezers. But it is unlikely that it will be possible to remove small specks and dust. In this case, it is better to throw out the anti-stress toy and prepare a new one.
In order for the toy to serve you as long as possible, it must be properly stored. To do this, you need an airtight container that must be in the refrigerator. In this case, the slime needs to be kneaded periodically in the hands and "fed" with a small amount of salted water so that it does not dry out during storage.
Keep in mind that homemade slimes usually have a shelf life of no more than 2-3 weeks. After this time, it is better to discard the anti-stress toy. Otherwise, it can become moldy, begin to exfoliate and dry out. If we are talking about edible slimes, then their shelf life is much shorter - only 5 days, no more.
