Why, when you have a bath with bubble bath in it, do the bubbles all pop when you put soap in the water?

If your soap has lanolin in it, and a lot of them do, the the grease will float on the top of the water and kill your bubbles, most soaps have some kind of fat in them, if you want to keep your bubbles, then use a shower gel to wash in the bath.





also if you have greasy lips when you drink a Cola type drink, it will go flat, same reason.Why, when you have a bath with bubble bath in it, do the bubbles all pop when you put soap in the water?
Soap reduces the surface tension of the water / bubble surface.Why, when you have a bath with bubble bath in it, do the bubbles all pop when you put soap in the water?
lack of surface tension caused by the slippery soap

and why, no matter what colour the bubble bath is, be it purple, orange or even bright red, are the bubbles always white? i've always wanted pink bath bubbles....
