What happens to detergent when you run water over it?

Dish soap bubbles up when you blast it with water, so are the cleaning properties stuck in the bubbles? Is the clear-looking water underneath the bubbles just as potent when it comes to disinfecting, or is it actually just water?

Some body soaps and shampoos have additives to make them bubble, but it is not necesscary. It is a marketing trick, we have been conditioned to think “scrubbing bubbles” etc are better.
