'Slime' craze warning as Perth teenager suffers burns
It's the craze that spread around the world, but trying to make your own "slime" at home can have serious consequences, as one Perth teenager found out when she ended up with blisters and deep burns.
Millions of children across the world have been swept up in the slime fad but there can be very serious consequences.
This is the result of a 13-year-old girl mixing a common household cleaning agent with shaving cream and shampoo.
The Karrinyup girl, who was trying to create a home-made version of slime, ended up with blisters, peeling skin and deep burns.
There are millions of posts on social media about the craze, which has taken the world by storm.
Consumer Protection in WA has issued a warning that says products should only be used as intended and consumers should take notice of any warnings on labels.
It's been six weeks since the Perth girl burned her hands and she says they are only just starting to look normal.
