Slime is a soft toy with a jelly-like consistency. There are slimes on sale in different sizes and colors, so it is very easy to find the right anti-stress. But many people prefer to create them with their own hands. One of the most popular products used to make slimes is shampoo.

Which shampoo is right for you?

For the preparation of slimes, two main ingredients are usually used - a thickener and a polymer. Shampoo can be a great base for slime. It is thick, has a pleasant texture and light aroma.

Any shampoo can be used to create slimes. A regular hair wash from the Chistaya Line company or even a baby product will do. The main thing is that it is thick enough... In this case, the toy will stretch perfectly and “crunch” pleasantly during the game. A product that is too liquid will not make the slime elastic enough.

The color of the shampoo and its smell does not really matter. A white or transparent product with a neutral aroma can be supplemented with colors, flavors and various glitters or beads.

How to make a slime with salt?

Most often, shampoo slimes are prepared by mixing the main ingredient with finely ground salt. In order for the product to be of high quality and elastic, it must be mixed in equal proportions with shower gel. Salt should be added to a bowl with this mass, after which everything should be thoroughly mixed and sent to the refrigerator for 10-12 hours.

It is best to cook a toy using foods of the same color.... Otherwise, the slime will turn out to be not so beautiful. After the required time has passed, the container with the slime must be removed from the refrigerator and mixed again. After that, it should be sent to the freezer for a couple of minutes.This cooking method will help make the hand gum crispier.

If the toy is too sticky, add some baby oil to the bowl. You can make the slime more elastic and soft by mixing 3-4 teaspoons of ordinary office glue into the base during the preparation process.

Making slime with PVA glue

Using regular PVA glue, you can also prepare a soft elastic slime. On contact with the thickening agent, this product becomes elastic and makes the toy denser. The cheapest PVA glue can be used to prepare antistress. The main thing is that it is not expired or too liquid. Indeed, in this case, the slime simply will not thicken. To prepare the slime, you will need the following ingredients:

  • PVA glue;
  • baby cream;
  • sodium tetraborate;
  • shampoo.

Preparing a slime is very simple.

  • First thing in a deep container you need to pour out a bottle of PVA glue... There you need to add 2 tablespoons of shampoo and 1 teaspoon of baby cream.
  • The contents of the bowl should be carefully mix, and then add sodium tetraborate there. Mix the finished mixture well again.
  • As a result, the mass should turn out to be quite thick and viscous. At this point, you can add a dye or essential oil to the mixture for scent.
  • After that, the slime needs mash for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Next, the slime should be placed in a container and left in a cool place for 1-2 days. Immediately after that, it can be used to play.

Other recipes

Besides glue and salt, there are other products that go well with shampoo.

With sugar

In the slime preparation process, sugar is used as a thickener. It dissolves easily in a thick liquid and turns it into a viscous syrup. At the same time, it is worth remembering that this does not happen immediately. In order for the sugar to dissolve, the slime must be kept in the refrigerator for a day.

Classic slime is made from two ingredients. You need to use half a glass of sugar and 2 teaspoons of finely ground sugar. To speed up the slime preparation process, sugar can be turned into a light powder. Immediately after that, the ingredients must be mixed in a bowl until smooth.

When playing with such a slime, it should be borne in mind that when heated, it quickly becomes viscous and watery. Therefore, after a couple of minutes of such a game, it will need to be sent back to the refrigerator so that it freezes.

With soda

High-quality and elastic slime can also be made with baking soda. But when choosing this particular recipe, it is worth remembering that it is not suitable for small children. They may be allergic to baking soda.

To prepare such a slime at home, half a glass of shampoo must be mixed with 80 ml of water. Stir the contents of the bowl until smooth and add a small amount of tap liquid there. If the mixture is slightly dry, you can add some more water to it.

After that, the container must be put in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. After removing the slime from the bowl, gently knead it. If it is still dry and does not wrinkle well, you can add a little baby oil there. This tool will add elasticity to it.

With sodium tetraborate

Sodium tetraborate acts as a thickener in the slime preparation process. You can buy it at any pharmacy. Such a product is inexpensive. A big plus of slimes, which are prepared from shampoo and sodium tetraborate, is that they do not spread over time and do not lose elasticity. But letting small children play with them is not worth it.

To make such a toy with your own hands, add 4 tablespoons of thick shampoo, 20 ml of any liquid soap and 3 drops of sodium tetraborate to the bowl. All these components must be mixed well until smooth. Next, the container with slime should be sent to the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. After that, you need to get it out of there and knead the mass in your hands.

If the slime sticks to your palms after the right time, add a little more thickener to the mixture and send it to the refrigerator for another couple of minutes.

Without the addition of dyes, the product will turn out to be light... Therefore, if desired, you can add a couple more drops of food coloring to the bowl with this thick mass before kneading. In this case, the slime will be bright and beautiful.

With shaving foam

Using regular shaving foam, the slime can be made airy and gentle. To prepare such an elastic toy, you will need the following ingredients:

  • shampoo - 1 tablespoon;
  • shaving foam - 4 tablespoons;
  • water - 1 tablespoon;
  • salt - 0.5 teaspoon;
  • dye.

This remedy is being prepared quickly enough.

The first step is to shake the bottle of shaving foam well. The foam, along with the shampoo, is added to the bowl. It all mixes well. After that, add water and salt to the container with the main products. Further, it is advisable to mix food coloring or gouache into the foamy mass.

The mixture should be smooth. If at the end of cooking it is still too thin, add a little more salt. In order for the slime to become soft and elastic, it should be removed from the bowl and kneaded for a few minutes.

With starch

Corn and potato starch are very often used for making slimes. For this you need to choose a high-quality product. In this case, it is important to ensure that it does not have an expiration date.

The first step is to pour half a glass of shampoo into a deep bowl. This amount of product is enough to make a small toy for a child. In a bowl of shampoo, add 2 tablespoons of starch and 1 drop of dye of any color. After that, everything should be thoroughly mixed.

If the slime turns out to be too liquid, add a little more starch to the base. If it is too thick - 1-2 teaspoons of water. After that, the mass can be started to knead with your hands.

With flour

Lizuns made from flour are soft and pleasant to the touch. Even small children can use them to play. In order to make a bright slime, you need to prepare flour, baby oil, shampoo and dishes.

The first step is to sift the flour well. Add it to the shampoo bowl in small portions. In this case, you should constantly monitor how thick and dense the mixture is. When the product has acquired the desired consistency, the bowl can be put in the refrigerator for half an hour.

The finished slime should be kneaded with hands, oiled with baby oil. This will make it more elastic.

With paper

The original slime will turn out if you use paper to prepare it. You need to make such a slime from high-quality soft paper. In this case, it will be pleasant to the touch. You can also use paper towels or napkins instead of paper.

To prepare such a slime, you need only 3 ingredients:

  • toilet paper - 3 pieces;
  • shampoo - 3 tablespoons;
  • potato starch - 3 teaspoons.

You also need to prepare a deep bowl in advance. Pour a small amount of shampoo into it. After that, paper shredded into small pieces should be added to the bowl. Then everything must be thoroughly mixed. The mixture will be thick and dense. It must be left in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, during which time the paper will finally dissolve in the liquid.

Next, you need to add starch to this thick mass and mix everything thoroughly again. You will get a small dense slime of a light color.

With glue stick

This is one of the simplest recipes that will appeal to both adults and children. You don't even need kitchen utensils to make slime.

The first step is to carefully twist the glue and knead it in your hands. After that, it should be sprinkled with a little water and eye drops added to this mixture. The resulting product must be kneaded again.Then add a small amount of shampoo to it, controlling the consistency of the slime.

If desired, you can add a little dye to this thick mass and knead everything again. The slime will turn out to be soft and elastic. It will be pleasant for both adults and children to play with him.

With pasta

Very often toothpaste is also used to make slimes. This product thickens the slime base. For the preparation of the product, it is best to select a paste with a neutral odor. Slimers will need the following ingredients:

  • shampoo - 2 tablespoons;
  • toothpaste - 2 tablespoons;
  • salt - 1 teaspoon;
  • water.

The first step is to mix the toothpaste and shampoo in a small bowl. The mixture should be smooth and thick enough. Next, you need to add a small amount of water and salt to it. A bowl with this slime should be refrigerated for 1-2 hours. During this time, the mixture will become homogeneous and thick enough. It will be very pleasant to wrinkle it in your hands.

How to store the toy?

Another important point that should be taken into account by those who want to learn how to make slimes with their own hands is the peculiarities of their storage. You need to adhere to the following rules.

  1. Store slime out of direct sunlight. It is best to place it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the slime.
  2. To prevent the toy from drying out and cracking over time, it must be stored in a closed container or a bag with a special fastener.
  3. In the event that the slime decreases in size during use, into it you need to add a little salt. Next, the slime must be kneaded well. After adding salt, the slime will not decrease in size.
  4. After using the slime, it must always be cleaned of debris and wool. In this case, he will always retain external attractiveness.

If the slime loses its elasticity over time, it can be "revitalized" using a few drops of glycerin, baby oil or hand cream. To do this, the product must be kneaded for several minutes, after having lubricated the palms with any of these means.

Slime, which has completely lost its attractiveness and stopped reaching out, should be thrown away. After all, you can make a new toy in just a couple of minutes.
