Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large clear glass jar (mason jar)
- Warm water (enough to fill 3/4 of the jar)
- A generous dollop of white foaming shaving cream
- Glow-in-the-dark or neon food coloring (a few drops of your favorite colors)
- Small bowls or cups (2-3 for mixing colors)
- Pipettes, droppers, or teaspoons (1 for each color)
Instructions
- Fill your jar with warm water until it’s about 3/4 full.
- Plop a generous amount of white foaming shaving cream on top of the water.
- In small bowls or cups, mix your chosen glow-in-the-dark or neon food coloring with a splash of water.
- Carefully drizzle the colored water over the shaving cream and watch the colors trickle down.
Notes
Keep the jar covered with a lid if you want to save it for a short time. The shaving cream will break down after a while. If the water gets cloudy or starts to smell, empty and make a fresh one.
