Oh why you. Do this to me!! 😂 I love it now I have to make one!! Great tutorial
Omg soo cool
Loved it
Thank you 😊
Do you think you can add an coloring to the baby oil and maybe have a two tone solution that stays seperate?
Yes, it shouldn't bleed if you dye the baby oil. I will do one this week and try it out!
I have a question can I use powder pigment or does it have to be mica powder?
I think the pigment powder would work just fine.
Have you done one with acrylic paint instead of alcohol ink/ food coloring?
kzhead.info/sun/ar5qkrKxeWeVdHk/bejne.html I have, here it is if you want to see how it turned out.
Do you have an issue with the glow fading after a few days? It’s like it stays on the bottom and doesn’t mix back in when shaking. If so, how do I prevent this?
I've not had that problem with the glow powder, but have had glitter get stuck. I usually lightly tap/bounce the cup on my leg repeatedly and it usually dislodges itself. Just don't do it too hard or you can crack the cup. Or maybe try a different brand of vegetable glycerin possibly... or maybe mix a little water in with it. It could possibly be too thick and the powder has issues mixing back in.
Hey! So I tried everything, I did exactly what you showed and even bought the exact same pigments .I tried adding a lot of powder, tried thinning the VG with water, tried glow in the dark paint and everything , even tried grinding down the pigment more , but the pigment still settles at the bottom and gets stuck after a few hours. I shake it and flip it around to try to mix the pigments back with the VG and it doesn’t come back together. Do you have this issue? Any suggestions?
So idk what I might have done wrong 😂 I made my tumbler exactly like you did but for some reason all the colored glycerin doesn't flow and mostly just sits in place. Any idea what I might have done wrong?
Do you have too much air in it? Glycerin too think possibly?
Can u add glitter to this type of tumbler
Yes, it the glitter should stay with the glycerin though so you would get glitter drips. I can definitely make one and post it
How much baby oil do you add to the squuze bottle if you don't mind me asking?
Depends on how many oz. Your tumbler is. I just fill the squeeze bottle about half way then eyeball how much more oil I need to fill it all the way. I'm guessing around 150ml.
@@weirdandwonderful thank you so much 16 oz tumbler
Would achieve the same flow if i used acrylic paint instead of the glow powder? I seen your other video but it flows a little fast for me 😩
You can try to dry your paint out just a little bit.. like don't make it dry but a bit thicker. It might just be too liquidy. Or try a different vegetable glycerin some of them are thicker and some of them are thinner consistency. Another way to slow down the drips is to make sure there's a bit of air in the tumbler. The air kind of forces the drips to wait until there's a gap in the bubble. You can see it on some of my tumblers. I don't try to get a lot of air out of these ones. Some air is okay. It helps with the flow coming down slower because it has to fight the air.
@@weirdandwonderful you’re awesome, thank you!
What glow in the dark powder did you use please 🙂
I linked the brand I used in the description.
Hi ☺️ Can I use alcohol ink instead of the food colorant ?
No, it will bleed into the oil 😊
@@weirdandwonderful thank you 😊 you are awesome
My glow in the dark pigment keeps separating. Did you have that issue? I think it may be the brand I used.
It is a mica powder so if its heavier than your glycerin it will settle. Try adding more powder and it won't have as much space to settle into. I will see if I can think of a heavier liquid to help with that.
I made it how you made yours but mine don’t glow? The mica mixed in with the glycerin I don’t know what I did wrong
Did you use glow in the dark mica? Some are better than others. Take it outside and let the sun on it or use a uv light on it then take it to the dark. If it's not glowing try adding some more glow powder. Some of them are not the best for strength so adding more powder can help with that.
I did the same mix and my everything separated ugh so frustrating
Are you using basic food coloring? The powder can settle a bit but add more if that is what is happening and you won't notice it as much. Mica is heavier than the vegetable glycerin, if that is what is separating on you, you may need to shake it or add more mica if your powder is heavy. If your color is leaching into your oil then you need to use a water based coloring. If you use alcohol ink it is possible it mixed with the oil giving you a discoloration.
Where do you get the cups from?
I got these ones from Micheals but sometimes they leak. Although the new design they have now seem better. So far no leaks. *crossing fingers*
@@weirdandwonderful awesome! Thank you!
my pigment separated and stuck Im sad that this didnt work for me. UGH
my glycerin and baby oil keep mixing together- any idea why?
It shouldn't, try a different brand of baby oil or glycerin. Make sure there is no oil in your glycerin, it has to be water based for it to not bleed together.
can i use solarcolordust powder neon pigment for color or no
I'm not familiar with that pigment but I'm sure if it glows in the dark you will be fine using it.
@@weirdandwonderful i did it and it worked but there is A TON OF BUBBLES. inbetween the layers. What do i do
@@weirdandwonderful also what uf i wanted to add chunky glitter in one of the layers will it stay in said layer?
@@winxtwins lightly shake it so the air comes up. A little air is ok but you don't want too much.
@@weirdandwonderful would saying let it sit for 48 hours be a smart idea? What about the glitter i mentioned?
Why does my lava is so run runny
Try a different brand of glycerin. Some of them are much more runny than others. I'm not sure why they differ so much.
Why are you talking so low???
