How to Make No-Glue Soap Slime

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup thick liquid soap or body wash
  • 1/2–3/4 cup cornstarch
  • Optional: food coloring or liquid watercolors
  • Optional: glitter or scent (essential oils or soap-safe fragrance)

Directions

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients and tools. Make sure you have a clean mixing bowl and a spoon for stirring.
  2. In the mixing bowl, pour in 1/4 cup of thick liquid soap or body wash. This will be the base of your slime.
  3. If you want to add some color or sparkle, drop in one or two drops of food coloring or sprinkle in some glitter. Mix gently until it’s well combined.
  4. Begin to incorporate the cornstarch into the soap mixture. Add in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch at a time, stirring thoroughly after each addition.
  5. Continue adding cornstarch until the mixture starts to thicken and pull away from the sides of the bowl.
  6. Once the slime reaches a thick consistency, it’s time to get your hands in there! Knead the mixture for a minute or so until it becomes soft and retains a dough-like texture.
  7. Now that your slime is ready, it’s time for some fun! Squish, stretch, or roll it and enjoy the silky, cloud-like feel of your homemade soap slime.

Tips & Variations:

  • For a fun twist, experiment with different scents by adding a few drops of essential oils or soap-safe fragrance.
