The “slimy feel” has nothing to do with the choice of regenerate; sodium chloride vs. potassium chloride. The “slimy feel” is what your skin actually feels like without the hardness that comes from the magnesium and calcium ions in hard water. You are feeling the natural oils on your skin. Water softeners do not add anything to make your skin feel slimy.
