Hi thanks for your help!!
I spent 4 days trying to make this soap but I don't feel satisfied with the result. What can I do?
I tried to add volumetric absortion but it didn't provide good enough result either.

Rendered result:

    $\begingroup$ Welcome to the site. One of your images seems to be missing, so I edited your question. Also provide some info about your rendering engine and material settings you use (you can comment to your post instead of editing it with links). Thanks. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ translucent is mostly definitely something you'll need, and I would use Fresnel to adjust reflective level from different angle. SSS node is something worthy of trying if translucent doesn't give you what you want. Try not to use volumic absortion, I hated it, personal opinion. Your first render looks pretty close actually. Most importantly, do not drop it. $\endgroup$ Sep 14, 2016 at 19:48
  • $\begingroup$ Thanks a lot! Mr Zak and SVAFnemesis, taketh on its recommendations, and i'll post a new render with my final result. Thanks!!! $\endgroup$ Sep 14, 2016 at 22:11

Soap

This is closest I can get. It is kind a partial answer but it could be starting point for you.

I've used fot this Subsurf Scattering shader added to Translucent shader and then mixed with Glossy shader by Fresnel to give it fake PBR look.

Here is a node setup:

And .blend file:
