Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 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)

Method
 

  1. Fill your jar with warm water until it’s about 3/4 full.
  2. Plop a generous amount of white foaming shaving cream on top of the water.
  3. In small bowls or cups, mix your chosen glow-in-the-dark or neon food coloring with a splash of water.
  4. 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.
