about og slimes
Starting the business
OG Slimes began in 2016 when Christine discovered a slime video on Instagram and was instantly hooked. What started as a hobby quickly turned into an obsession! She decided to share her own video on Instagram, and it went viral. The breakthrough came with Butter OG, the very first butter slime. As demand grew, she began to sell the slime and each restock sold out instantly.
Our Growth
The business quickly outgrew Christine’s small bedroom, moving into a 500-square-foot storage unit and doubling in size every year. As sales took off, the team grew too, and they started experimenting with new textures, scents, and slime designs. Later on, Christine and Olivya became best friends during a trip to Japan. Olivya came on board as a co-owner to help the business grow. They overcame a lot of challenges as first-generation, Gen Z, female entrepreneurs.
Where we’re at now
Today, OG Slimes operates out of a two-story warehouse in Los Angeles and has a team of 15 people driving its growth. They strive to push the boundaries of the slime industry with unique scents and designs.
