Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare Your Base

    Pour 1 cup of white school glue into a large mixing bowl. If you want colored fluffy slime, add a few drops of food coloring now and mix well.

  2. 2

    Add Baking Soda

    Add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to the glue and stir until completely dissolved. This helps stabilize your slime.

  3. 3

    Add Shaving Cream

    Add 2-3 cups of shaving cream to the mixture. The more you add, the fluffier your slime will be! Gently fold it in to maintain the air bubbles.

  4. 4

    Activate Your Slime

    Slowly add 1-2 tablespoons of contact solution while stirring. Add it gradually and mix between additions until the slime begins to form and pull away from the sides of the bowl.

  5. 5

    Knead Your Slime

    Once the slime has formed, take it out and knead with your hands for 3-5 minutes until it's no longer sticky. If it remains sticky, add a few more drops of contact solution.

  6. 6

    Store Properly

    Store your fluffy slime in an airtight container. Note that fluffy slime will gradually deflate over time (usually within 1-3 days) as the air bubbles escape.

Pro Tips

  • For extra fluffy slime, use fresh shaving cream and fold it in gently to preserve the air bubbles

  • If your slime is too sticky, add more activator (contact solution) a few drops at a time

  • If your slime is too stiff, knead in a small amount of lotion to soften it

  • Fluffy slime will naturally deflate over time - this is normal! Just enjoy the fluffy texture while it lasts

  • For a fun twist, add some fine glitter or small foam beads for extra texture and visual appeal

Troubleshooting

Slime is too sticky

Add more contact solution a few drops at a time and knead well between additions

Slime is too stiff

Add a small amount of lotion or glycerin and knead to incorporate

Slime deflated quickly

This is normal for fluffy slime. To temporarily restore some fluffiness, you can knead in a small amount of fresh shaving cream

Slime isn't forming properly

Check that your contact solution contains boric acid or sodium borate as an ingredient, as this is what activates the slime
