If your slime becomes tough, dry, sticky, or spinning, you can fix it by adding some activator substitutes like Borax commonly found in regular slime recipes. If you’re making your own slime and are worried about using Borax it might irritate your skin or be unsafe for young children, try this Borax-free slime recipe. These recipes use Borax alternative ingredients to activate slimes. You can try making cornstarch sponge slime or soft slime with baking soda and contact lens cleaner as an alternative to traditional slime with Borax activator.

Add lotion to the tough slime to give it some flexibility. Put some moisturizer on slime that has lost its elasticity. Use your hands to knead the cream into the slime. You can add a little cream at a time until the slime has the desired consistency. [1] X Research Source
- Any hand cream or body lotion can be used in this method.
- This is an effective solution for slime that has become tough and broken when stretched.

Moisten dried slime with warm water. Hold the dried slime under warm running water or dip the slime in a bowl of warm water for about 1 second at a time, then knead it with your hands to allow the water to penetrate the slime. Repeat this until you find the slime moist and pliable. [2] X Research Source
- This method works for slimes that are slightly dry because they are not stored in a sealed container.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/95/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-3.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/95/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-3.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Add baking soda and contact lens cleaner to reduce the stickiness of the slime. Place the sticky slime in the bowl. Add ½ teaspoon of contact lens cleaner and ½ teaspoon of baking soda to the slime, then knead the ingredients with the slime by hand. Add more ingredients if the slime is still too sticky. [3] X Research Sources
- Add no more than ½ teaspoon of contact lens cleaner and ½ teaspoon of baking soda at a time. If you add too much, it is possible that the slime will become tough and break when stretched.

Fix spinning slime by adding liquid starch. Place the spinning slime in a bowl and add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of liquid starch. Use a metal spoon to stir the liquid starch. Continue stirring 1 tablespoon more liquid starch at a time until you can no longer see slime fibers sticking to the spoon. [4] X Research Sources
- When the slime is no longer spinning, you can pick up the slime and start kneading it by hand to make the slime firmer.
Warning : You should be aware that some liquid starches contain Borax.
Make fluffy slime with corn starch
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/27/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/27/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Stir in ½ cup (120ml) of shampoo and ¼ cup (30g) of cornstarch. Pour ½ cup of shampoo into a bowl and add ½ cup of cornstarch. Use a metal spoon to stir the ingredients.
- You can use any shampoo, but a thicker shampoo is usually better. [5] X Research Sources

Add 3 drops of food coloring if you want the slime to be colored. Add 3 drops of food coloring to the mixture. Stir well to color the slime. [6] X Research Sources
- This is an optional step. You don’t need to add food coloring if you don’t want colored slimes.
Tip : Green is the basic slime color, but you can create any color for the slime. Add more than 3 drops of color if you want the slime to have a more pronounced color.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/70/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-7.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/70/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-7.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Stir in 6 tbsp (90ml) of water, 1 tbsp at a time. Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of water to the mixture and stir well. Add the remaining 5 tablespoons (75ml) of water in turn, stirring well after each addition of 1 tablespoon of water. [7] X Research Sources
- This creates slime with a spongy, powdery texture.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/2d/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/2d/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Knead the slime for at least 5 minutes. Make a fist and press your knuckles firmly on the slime to knead. Flip the slime over and do the same thing. You need to process for at least 5 minutes until the slime has a fluffy texture and is not too sticky. [8] X Research Sources
- If you feel the slime is too sticky after, add more cornstarch and continue kneading until you are satisfied with the texture.

Store slime in a zippered plastic bag to retain moisture. Put the slime in a resealable bag when you’re done playing. Push all the air out and close the mouth of the bag so the slime doesn’t dry out. [9] X Research Source
- You can also store slime in a small plastic container with a tight-fitting lid instead of a plastic bag.
- If you store your slimes properly, slimes can last for several months.
Make flexible slime with baking soda
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d3/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-10.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d3/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Stir 1 cup (240ml) of colloidal milk with 1 tablespoon (15g) of baking soda. Pour 1 cup of colloidal milk into the bowl, then add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and use a metal spoon to stir the mixture. [10] X Research Source
- This recipe creates slime with a similar texture to the slime made from Borax. However, slimes will have a little grain like sand.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/42/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/42/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Add 3 drops of food coloring if you want to create colored slimes. You just need to add 3 drops of food coloring of your choice. Stir well to color the slime. [11] X Research Source
- You can increase or decrease the food color to make slime as dark or light as you like. Skip the step of adding food coloring if you want to create white slimes.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/7e/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-12.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/7e/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of contact lens cleaner and stir well. All you need to do is add 1 tablespoon of contact lens cleaner, stir well, and watch the slime change in texture. [12] X Research Source
- Contact lens cleaning solution combined with baking soda will become the activator instead of Borax.
- Contact lens cleaning solution is also known as physiological saline.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/90/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Activate-Slime-Without-Activator- Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/90/Activate-Slime-Without-Activator-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Activate- Slime-Without-Activator-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Continue stirring in the contact lens cleaner until the slime has the desired texture. Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of contact lens cleaner at a time and stir well. Stop adding solution when the slime has a doughy texture. [13] X Research Source
- You need to knead the slime by hand after each time you add contact lens cleaner when the slime is hard.
- If the slime is still too sticky, you can add a few drops of baby oil to the mixture.
Tips : Flexible slime will harden after many times of kneading. If the slime seems soft, simply knead and play with the slime until it has the desired texture.

Store slime in a resealable box or bag for longer shelf life. Place the flexible slime in a container with a tight-fitting lid or a zippered plastic bag. Close the lid of the box or close the mouth of the bag so that the slime can be used longer. [14] X Research Source
- If you store your slimes this way every time you finish playing, the slimes will keep for a few weeks or months. You can always add activator when the slime starts to dry out or lose its pliability.
Things you need
- Bowl
- Metal spoon
- Zippered plastic bags or boxes with tight-fitting lids
