soap residue
Film after washing
Soap residue is the film or buildup left behind when soap isn't fully rinsed away.
It accumulates on skin, dishes, laundry, and bathroom surfaces—often appearing as a dull haze or sticky coating.
The soap residue in the shower made the tiles slippery.
Hard water worsens the problem by combining with soap to form scum.
