A hair care composition is disclosed comprising a cationic surfactant, a silicone compound, a linear or branched alkane having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms and an antidandruff agent selected from piroctone olamine, selenium sulfide, azole based anti-fungal agents and mixtures thereof, wherein the composition is substantially free of a cyclomethicone compound; wherein said cyclomethicone compound is present in an amount less than 1.5% based on total weight of the hair care composition.

Sponges for cosmetic and/or medicinal applications are coated with a surface coating. The surface coating contains an elastomeric, non-silicone polymer, a certain silicone polymer, an encapsulated phase change material and optionally ceramic particles. The coated sponges have desirable haptic properties and efficiently absorb and release make-up and medicines for application to the skin.
