In this guide, we’ll share essential tips and tricks on how to best care for your slime collection, keeping it soft, stretchy, and satisfying!

Essential Slime Care Tips

🧼 Wash Your Hands First

Before playing with slime, always wash your hands thoroughly. Clean hands prevent dirt, oils, and bacteria from contaminating your slime, ensuring it stays fresh and lasts longer.

🧊 Store Slime in Airtight Containers

Always keep your slime in airtight containers to maintain moisture and prevent drying out. Ensure lids are tightly sealed after every use to keep the slime’s texture perfect.

⏰ Limit Playtime

Excessive handling can cause slime to deteriorate faster. For optimal lifespan, play sessions should be limited to around 10–15 minutes at a time.

❄️ Keep Slime Cool and Dry

Heat and direct sunlight can melt or make slime excessively sticky. Store your slime in a cool, dry place to preserve its ideal consistency and prevent unwanted stickiness.

💧 Rejuvenate with Activator

If slime becomes too sticky, restore its texture by adding small amounts of slime activator (a mix of borax dissolved in warm water) gradually. Always knead thoroughly after each addition.

🚫 Avoid Over-Activating

Too much activator can stiffen your slime, making it less enjoyable. Add activator slowly, in small increments, to maintain the slime’s ideal stretchy consistency.

⚠️ Keep Slime Safe

Slime isn’t edible and can be hazardous to small children or pets if ingested. Always supervise young kids during slime play and store slime out of pets' reach.
