Making marblized paper with shaving cream

Watch as Ms. Shannon shows us how to make marble paper using shaving cream!
What’s the science behind it? - Shaving cream contains soap which consists of long ionic species that have a polar (hydrophilic) head and a non-polar (hydrophobic) tail making it only partially polar.
Paper contains cellulose, which is polar due to the presence of numerous hydroxide groups. Food coloring is also polar. This means that when the paper is applied to the to the pile of shaving cream, the polar food coloring will be attracted to the polar cellulose molecules of the paper rather than the partially polar soap molecules of the shaving cream. Thus the dye adheres to the paper more than to the shaving cream.
