soapiness
Slick bubbly texture
Soapiness is the quality of being soapy—slippery, foamy, or resembling soap in texture or residue.
Water with high mineral content lacks soapiness; soft water produces it readily.
The word extends to anything with that slick, lathery feel: The soapiness of the lotion made it hard to grip the bottle.
Figuratively, soapiness can describe something excessively sentimental or melodramatic, like a soap opera.
