Slipping
Slipping often happens in bathing scenes because water and other liquids reduce friction and grip that people have on the surfaces they stand on. Sometimes it also happens because of oily lubricants like Soap, or characters may walk on and slip on a slippery bar of soap or a round cannister of shampoo. Slipping is when people lose their sense of balance and fall or slide in ways they did not intend due to the slipperiness. It can include falling off one's feet, or even when already lying down, they may fall into a posture they did not intend.
When the slipping is done on soap, it is more specifically called Soap Slipping, but the more generic verb is inclusive of slipping on other things as well.
