How to Make Lemon Aromatherapy Slime

In a small mixing bowl, combine a 1/2 cup of glue with 1/2 cup of hot water and mix well.

Mix in a few drops of yellow coloring and a tablespoon of yellow glitter and mix until evenly combined. Next, mix in 3 drops of lemon essential oil.

Borax Slime

Make up the borax mixture. All you need to do is mix a 1/2 teaspoon of borax into your remaining 1/2 cup of hot water and stir until the borax is mostly dissolved. Now pour the borax water into the glue mixture and stir it; you will notice immediately the ingredients start coming together quickly to form the slime.

Once everything seems incorporated together, you can pour out the excess water, if there is any. Then remove your slime from the bowl and play with the slime in your hands until it all sticks together and has become lemon jiggly slime.

The lemon essential oil slime gives you a refreshed feeling and boosts your mood plus it smells amazing.
