With proper care, slimes can last for a several months. However, it is normal for slimes to deflate or melt over time depending on the weather or length of time it's been stored. In most cases, correcting the consistency of your slime is a super easy, quick fix!
To keep your slime in a good state for as long as possible, make sure to wash your hands before playing and play on a clean surface to avoid debris or bacteria from getting into your slime.
After playing, store your slime in an airtight container and a cool environment. Be sure to reactivate your slime frequently by using the slime activator included with your order.
WHAT IS SLIME ACTIVATOR?
Slime activator is a liquid solution of borax diluted water that is necessary to create and maintain slime in its proper gooey consistency through chemical reaction.
Every order will be provided with a bag of borax powder and instructions on creating a slime activator to fix sticky slime. Add a few drops of slime activator you’ve created into a sticky slime and knead until you reach your desired consistency. Make sure you don’t add too much activator at once to avoid over-activating your slime.
HOW TO FIX STICKY SLIME
The components of your slime can cause it to become stickier than desired especially in warmer weather, To restore it to its desired consistency, simply add a small amount of activator and knead until you achieve the texture that works for you - but don't go overboard as too much can result in a stiff slime.
HOW TO FIX STIFF SLIME
Slimes can become stiff and hard especially in colder months due to slime ingredients. However, don’t worry! Multiple ways can easily fix this:
Opaque slimes: Add small amounts of unscented lotion to the slime and knead until you reach the desired consistency.
Clear slimes: Leave the slime in an airtight container in a warm place for a few days for the slime to thaw and soften up.
