The invention relates to transparent, stable, film-forming oil-in-water microemulsions, and the use of the microemulsions in leave-on products or wash-off products of hair care application. The microemulsions contain an aminoalkyl-functional organopolysiloxane, a silicone resin, optionally a low viscosity oil, and a surfactant composition, are storage stable, and form coherent crosslinked films upon drying.
