I have made slime a LOT and as such, I've tried just about every slime recipe I can get my hands on. Most are some variation of glue and borax or liquid starch and borax or cornstarch and water, etc. FYI cornstarch and water = oobleck which is SUPER fun but not quite slime.
So with a lot of experimentation, this is my favorite slime recipe which I have not seen anywhere else. I didn't make huge modifications, just added in borax WITH glue and starch and it was pretty perfect!
In a bowl, add:
1 container of glue- any size
Fill that empty container with water and add to the bowl
Add food coloring as desired- I REALLY prefer gel colors- and mix well
Fill empty glue container with liquid starch and add to bowl
Add 1 teaspoon borax and mix well
Play!
It will be really goopy at first but if you knead it with your hands it gets less goopy more mold-able. If you want stringly gloopy gloopy slime, skip the borax. If you think the slime is too firm, add a palmfull of water and knead.
Store in an airtight container & have lots of fun!
