    It should work; if it is too thick, try adding water little by little until it is just the right consistency.

    Can I add lotion to cornstarch and dish soap slime?

    It might break it up or make it a bit sticky, so if you do try it, make sure to keep cornstarch and dish soap on hand in case you need to even things out.

  • Question
    I made slime using dish soap and toothpaste and put it in the freezer, but it's still watery. What should I do to fix this?
    Ennan Geographic
    Top Answerer
    You likely removed the slime from the freezer too soon. Try leaving it in the freezer for the full recommended time, such as an hour.
