I made one of these a few years years ago for my sixth grade science class. It is pretty easy. Here is what you need.
Ingredients
1.Small water bottle (empty)
2.Olive oil
3.Food coloring
4.water
First you mix the water and food coloring together (until you get desired color)
Then u put the oil in the empty water bottle, add the food coloring and water to the conquotion the tighten the cap and shake.
The reason the oil doesn't mix with the water is because the density of the liquids is far to different to combine and or to mix.
You should try it, it's cool fun and interesting.

It can take some trial and error to get it just right.
