Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Step 1: Add a bit of water.

    Sounds too simple, right? But it's true, some slimes can be revived this way.

    Put the slime in a bowl, and add a small amount of water to it.

    You likely won't need more than spoonful.

    Then just knead away until the slime softens., Another way to soften slime is to add a drop or two of antibacterial gel.

    The brand doesn't matter.

    Place the slime in a bowl, and just drip the gel in.

    Use a spoon to stir it in as well as you can.

    Then you can knead it until soft.

    Bonus, now your slime will be bacteria-free (for a while, anyway).You can add more gel if it doesn't soften on the first try. , Lotion keeps your skin nice and soft, and it can do the same for your slime.

    Go figure! Just put a spoonful or two in a bowl (four or five pumps if your lotion comes with a pump).

    Add a splash of water, and mix the two together.

    Now the fun part! Throw the slime in, and squish it around a bit.

    Once your slime is covered in the lotion, you can take it out and knead it by hand until it's soft., If you used a recipe that called for glue plus Borax, laundry detergent, or liquid starch, sometimes adding a bit more glue can help the situation.

    Add a spoonful or so at a time, and knead it in to soften it.
