Description

Ingredients

  • Water
  • Eye dropper or spoon
  • Small cup or container (to mix colors)

Instructions

  1. Fill the jar about three-quarters full with water.
  2. Gently spray shaving cream on top of the water in the jar to create a thick cloud layer.
  3. In a small cup, mix a few drops of food coloring with a bit of water to create a vibrant rain solution.
  4. Use an eye dropper or a spoon to slowly release the colored water onto the shaving cream cloud.
  5. Watch as the colored water penetrates the cloud and drips down like rain.
  6. Enjoy the mesmerizing effect as the colored water breaks through the shaving cream.
