How do you soften hard slime?

“If you have used too much borax, detergent, or liquid starch to your slime it will end up feeling like rubber,” says Zafar, “so you need to soften it up with either hair gel, lotion, or a little bit of warm water.” If you aren't in the mood to fix your slime, you can actually just leave it the way it is.

How long does homemade slime last?

Slime doesn't go bad, but you may want to toss it if it develops mold or if it dries out. Refrigerated slime, kept in a baggie, should last for a couple of weeks and can last months in a sealed bag unrefrigerated. If slime contains borax, it shouldn't spoil at all.

Body lotion makes the slime stretchy. Add more for extra stretch. Baby oil makes the slime less sticky so it doesn't stick to your hands as easily. Cornflour makes the slime hold its shape.

Does baking soda thicken slime?
