Butter slime is a popular homemade slime that is smooth, stretchy, and has a butter-like texture. It is typically made with white school glue, shaving cream, baking soda, modeling clay (such as Model Magic clay), and a saline/contact lens solution as an activator. Here is a basic overview of how to make butter slime:
Ingredients
- ½ cup white school glue (PVA glue)
- ⅓ cup shaving cream foam
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup modeling clay (Model Magic clay is preferred)
- 1-2 teaspoons saline (contact lens) solution (must contain boric acid)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the white glue and water thoroughly.
- Add the shaving cream and gently fold it into the glue and water mixture.
- Stir in the baking soda.
- Slowly add the saline solution one teaspoon at a time, mixing well after each addition until the slime begins to form.
- Once the slime forms, knead in the modeling clay with your hands until fully combined. This may take a few minutes of kneading and folding to achieve a smooth, butter-like consistency.
- If the slime is sticky, add a little more saline solution and knead again.
The result should be a soft, stretchy slime with a smooth, spreadable texture, similar to butter but without any actual butter in it. This slime is fun to play with and helps develop fine motor skills as well.
