I think when dealing with slime, since it's a somewhat kind of liquidy-jelly-slimy thing, it might be helpful to compare it to water droplets.
What it looks like right now is like she's made of snow or something similar, and maybe you could observe water drops and how sometimes the darkest looking part of a liquid is often around the highlight, and it sort of fades into a lighter colour as it goes away from the highlight thanks to refraction and internal reflection. It's a complicated subject so I'm not entirely sure if you got all that, but keep trying.
Keep doing slime until it looks like slime.

Of course!
If I may give my opinion,
Tutorials help but aren't the foundation of learning.
Observing and drawing life is what provides the foundation.
The difference between drawing from life and following a tutorial is that
someone else learned drawing from life and compiled that information into something more compact and less work intensive.
Either way, both are based on life.

I wouldn't say it's 100% necessary, but give it a try and see if it helps.
Just like grab any photo and try draw it, paint it, whatever it takes.
But don't do it just once, do it more than a few times.
No weightlifter gets strong by lifting something once.
Do it until it looks good, or until you're tired.
Good luck!
