How to Store Your Slime and Make It Last Longer

Keep Your Slime Fresh for Weeks!

Nothing is more frustrating than finding your slime hard and dried out the next day. Here are our top tips to store slime properly and extend its life.

The Golden Rule: Airtight Containers

Always store your slime in an airtight container after play. Air exposure causes it to dry out and lose elasticity quickly.

Ideal Temperature

Keep slime at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Avoid the fridge as it can make slime too stiff.
