Slime Strawberries doesn’t have a shop at the time of writing this, but their Instagram says they will soon, so I suspect by the time this is posted you will find it in their bio. Slime Puffs also has a shop through Shopify, which does have stock, but a very limited selection at the moment. SlimeHalo has an Etsy and rad.slime has a shop through Shopify. This is a link to the tag page that covers all our tags for them.Ī lot of the folks whose slimes are shown in the gif section of this post have shops. There is a lot of different places you can buy slime, floam, and putty, including ones not listed here. It has a tougher consistency and can sometimes rip and tear rather than stretch.įor folks looking to make their own, has a slime recipe masterpost and there’s some in parts one and two of the DIY stim toys masterposts. Putty is more sturdy than regular slime and more mass-produced. We all grew up with things like Silly Putty, and this is probably the easiest type of slime to purchase in store, rather than online. Dots can be added to this slime, but usually it is smooth, so it is recommended if you have sensory problems. Another version of smooth slime that is thicker and more “airy”, this slime is usually pastel in color and not as “gooey” as regular smooth slime. This slime looks nice because you can see the pieces inside and it feels good against your hand (a mix of chunky and smooth), but again, I would be wary if you have trypophobia. This type of slime is popularly used in the making of clear slime, usually having some kind of “toy” inside, like crafting beads, mini erasers, or little pieces of plastic. It’s a type of smooth slime that tends to be a little thicker. As you can see in many videos using this slime, people spread it out with a knife, causing it to look like butter. The name of this slime pretty much describes itself it’s a slime that is tough but “spreadable”. This slime is perfect for those of you who want a crunchy slime, but struggle with trypophobia, as there are no dots of any kind in this slime. This slime is a smooth slime that, when left alone for a period of time, will form a crunchy layer on top that you can poke and play with. This slime will hold its shape when you play with it and will not “ooze” all over your hand. This slime has a wonderful feel to it, but is another one to be wary of if you suffer from trypophibia. Fishbowl slime is made up of slime mixed with a ton of things called “filler beads”. Another type of slime you can describe with the word CRUNCH. Unlike floam, which has an enormous amount of dots in it, mini-floam has the slight sensation of dots in it but also runs over your hand just like smooth slime. Popular on Etsy, this slime is a batch of smooth slime with a few styrofoam dots thrown in. This slime is a combination of smooth slime and floam. This slime doesn’t move over your hand as easily as smooth slime and tends to hold its shape. It is full of small styrofoam dots though, so if you have trypophobia, I recommend doing some more research before purchasing, to make sure you’ll be able to handle it. If you like slime that makes noise, then floam is definitely for you. I have one word to describe floam: CRUNCH. The reason I use quotation marks for the word floam is because you can buy the official floam, or buy homemade floam on sites like Etsy. Just smooth slime that will slowly run over your hand while you hold it. This slime is perfect for those who are easily over-stimulated, as there are no beads or dots in it. Sometimes this slime can be clear and usually it’s colored. This slime is the most basic form of slime, there are no decorations or additives, just smooth and gooey slime. You do not need to go by this post specifically, feel free to buy any kind of slime your heart desires! But this is to help those who are new to buying slime, so they can better understand the differences between each type. I know there are a lot of different types of slime out there, so I figured I would make a post describing the properties of each slime to help you better decide which one would be right for you to purchase.
