Now, Coming To The Crystal Slime-Making Process

  1. First, you take the glued glitter and pour it ( whole tube or your desired measurement) in a bowl.
  2. Add some water to it and mix well.
  3. Second, you have to take 1 cup of warm water and 1 tbsp of borax ( the container should be separate ).
  4. Stir well.
  5. Third, pick the super-absorbent diaper polymer ( Another name of super-absorbent diaper polymer is “ slush powder.” )
  6. Take another bowl and put one spoon of super-absorbent polymer in it. Add some water.
  7. Now put the borax + water mixture, and super-absorbent polymer (SAP) + water mixture into the bowl where glued glitter + water mixture is stored.
  8. It means borax, super-absorbent polymer, and glued glitter should be in a single bowl now.
  9. Add loose glitter if you want more shimmer and shine.
  10. Blend the whole things very well.
  11. Keep on stirring.
  12. Knead it until it takes the shape of a single lump.

Points To Check

  1. See the texture if it looks like a fluffy jelly crystal. Rub to feel if it’s dry to touch from the outside with the soft moisturized slippery, stretchy jiggly qualities. The lump should get separated as chunks.
  2. If you wish to get solid colored slime, add few drops of food color to the final mixture before blending and kneading.

Your crystal slime is ready. Now massage, squeeze, make toys, bounce and do whatever you like with your newly constructed slime. Preserve it in a zipped bag and never taste it.
