Morphology
The meaning 'a type of soap in liquid form' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'liquid' (in fluid form) with 'soap' (a washing substance); the adjective simply specifies the physical state of the noun. This ADJ+NOUN compositional pattern is cross-linguistically common and predictable, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Liquid soap names soap that is not a bar but a liquid you can pour or pump. The word liquid shows it flows and soap shows it is for 'washing', so the phrase means soap in liquid form used to clean hands or the body.
