Step 4 Activate your slime

After the glitters are well combined, it's time to activate your slime. Initially, add a few drops of activator into the glue and give the slime mixture a good mix using the spoon.

Your slime's texture should not be too runny or too thick. So, always remember to add it little by a little while stirring it. After some time of stirring, you will notice that the glue will start to get heavier and stickier which means your slime has been activated.
