Slime Info

CAUTION
Slime is NOT EDIBLE. Please keep your slime out of reach of small children and pets.

How long does slime last?
The shelf life of slime varies from type to type. Some slimes can last for a long time without getting sticky even if they don’t get activated. Others get sticky faster and therefore need more care. Just see your slime as a little pet that wants to be taken care of now and then. Please click here to read about how to take care of your slime.

I have allergies and/or I am ingredient conscious. What is in your slime?
All our slimes are made with school grade craft supplies as well as cosmetic grade and body safe ingredients. However, if your body is very sensitive it still might show allergic reactions. Do not play with slime if you are allergic to borax, glue, shaving cream, baby oil, lotion, soap, food coloring, cosmetic grade pigments, and/or fragrances/essential oils. If you have a specific allergy and want to make sure that our slimes don’t include it please feel free to contact us here.

    What is a slime activator, and how do I make it?
    A slime activator literally activates your slime and is necessary to create and maintain the chemical reaction that results in slime. Every order includes a little baggie of “Activator Dust” that can be used to make your very own activator. For instructions please click here. Before playing with your slime always make sure to carefully test if it is sticky. In case of stickiness add and mix in tiny amounts (drops) of activator at a time until it is not sticky anymore. BE CAREFUL: Slime gets overactivated very easily!

    Slime is recommended for kids ages 8 and up. Please keep slime away from small children at any time (CHOKING HAZARD).
