The invention relates to polymer micelle complexes. The polymer-micelle complexes include a positively charged micelle selected from the group consisting of a monomeric quaternary ammonium compound, a monomeric biguanide compound and mixtures thereof. The positively charged micelle electrostatically binds to a water-soluble polymer that carries a negative charge. The polymer does not comprise a block copolymer, latex particles, polymeric nanoparticles, crosslinked polymers, silicone copolymer, fluorosurfactant or an amphoteric copolymer. The compositions do not form a coacervate and do not form a film when applied on a surface. |
