Notes
We were going for a pink and purple unicorn swirl slime this time, so we made one batch of pink slime and one batch of blue slime and then just combined them at the end.
Do not use too much blue when combining at the end because the blue overpowers the pink very easily and you'll just end up with purple if you use too much.
Ingredients make 1 batch of slime (double if making swirl slime)
If you notice your slime is still super sticky and not holding its shape, add more magic activator and work it into the slime until it reaches the desired consistency.
