Table Salt is Sodium Chloride (NaCl), an ionic compound. It does not contain oil, nor does it dissolve well in oil.
However, "salt" is a generic term which describes an ionic bonded compound with an electro-positive part such as Sodium (Na+) and an electronegative part (Cl-).
Many natural oils such as vegetable oil or lard have an carboxylic acid as part of it.
One can make soap by mixing a natural oil with water and sodium hydroxide (Lye) or Potassium Hydroxide (Potash). This creates a "salt" with the oil which dissolves in water, and is able to capture oils.
So... natural soaps are salts that contain oils.
