If you dislike the new formula as much as I do, write to the manufacturer directly and let them know you want the old stuff back.
The company is American International Industries. They have a comment page and want feedback. So let's tell them.

I loved the ease and convience of surgi-wax. The last time I went to purchase it I found it to be completely different. HOW FRUSTRATING. It was almost impossible to get off. My skin was so red and irritated. Is their anyway to get the old stuff again??
what's the antidote?

I just went online to try to find out how to get thi stuff off of my skin. I see I am not the only one with this problem. I used ZIP wax products for several years and was pleased with them. Then they disappeared from all stores in my area and this Surgi-Wax appeared. At first I thought it looked easy to use but no way. I have tried about ten times now and the resulets are the same: sticky goo all over my hands, crusty residue on my skin, nothing I have at home will remove it. I hope the retailers dump this line and bring back ZIPS or another "real" wax. We don't need "honey" in our wax!
I am soooo sad!

I too want my old wax back! Who the heck decided that this is better than the old formula!??!? I cannot imagine how quickly I would have fired them for flat out lying to me! Probably a man who has never waxed anything in his life!!! I took forever to clean up all the sticky mess it makes and the waiting for it to set was almost painful!
NEW wax is not good!

I used to love the old surgi wax it was my favorite! The best ever. It worked so good and it was so easy to use and even reuse sometimes. But this new and improved version is a big MESS! It is so so sticky! It takes forever to harden enough for you to pull it off and it sticks to your hands so much and that little blue oil does not help. It took me hours, baby oil, and alot of scrubbing to get it off and then it got all over the floor of the tub and it took me another hour to get it off there. Please please bring the old surgi wax back. I really really miss it and need it!
P.S. WHY? WHY? DID YOU GUYS CHANGE IT?
Horrible

I've used Surgi-Wax for years but this new improved is so bad. I tried waxing my bikini area and 1 hour later still have clumps of soft wax which won't come off with oil. My undies are sticking, my skin is purple from picking it off. I can't show my legs for who knows how long now. It is going in the trash. I'd talked the wax up to a relative and even sent her some but now I need to call and tell her to dump it.
DO NOT USE- TERRIBLE PRODUCT

This is the worst wax I have ever used.
It hardens as soon as u put it on and then when you try to take it off - It stays on your leg. I had to peel it off with my fingers and its still on two day later.
DO NOT USE THIS WAX
BAD- VERY BAD!
This is terrible!

I've used the original Surgi-Wax for years. I gave it 10 stars... it was the best. I say WAS becasue something changed.
This new version makes a gooey mess that won't come off my skin for days. I have been waxing for years and I find this new version very difficult to use. It does not come off easily in strips. It breaks apart and sticks. I finally got it off a few deicate spots with suntan lotion! It will have to wear off the others.
I can not recommend this product. I am very disappointed.
awful

I like to try new products, but this was not easy or quick, It took me hours to get the wax off, it did not come off easily with baby oil or petroleum jelly.
I would not use this product, however the strip wax works great.
this wax isn't easy, see the photo

Customer Image 1:
As a woman who has used various wax products over the past year, this product by far is the worst. It is NOT quick or easy. I have used products that do not use the stips and the wax still comes off whole. This product chips and flakes and very difficult to come off (I followed the instructions to make sure to remove the wax before it bedomes hard). I tried the product on a small section of my leg, it dried and flaked right away and it took me 2 days to get the wax off my skin (I tried using petroleum jelly and baby oil to remove excess was as suggested). I eventually had to shave the rest of the wax off. I'll keep waxing, but I will never use surgi wax and I certainly would NOT recommend this product.
LOVE IT!

I never tried the old Surgi-Wax, but the "new and improved" stuff I bought today with the maple honey is great! SO much better than using the muslin strips and you only have to wait thirty seconds to pull it off. Does a wonderful job everywhere. Yes, everywhere.

I want to old wax back. This new one is terrible and not even as good as the other one.
To the company; "what were you thinking to change it to this new one". It's plain no goooooooood. Bring back the old one please.
Try it!!

I have to say that I love Surgi-wax, I have been useing this product for about a year now and have found it sooo much more comfortable than any other form of waxing out there!! I used it everywhere. A trick I've learned to get it off your fingers is to use regular rubbing alcohol or "Goop be gone"! Try that and then see how you like it!

This stuff does not hurt as much as the original wax, but at least I wasn't spending 2 hours getting the junk off of my fingers. I can't believe how sticky it is. I won't buy it again. They should give people a choice and have the original and the new one. I don't care for the new one at all. I'm going to go pickit with my big 'ol mustache and unibrow in front of the company that makes surgi wax. Think they'll get my point? I would share a photo, but just find one of bigfoot. That's what I look like now.

This New product with Honey wax strips was a waste of Money, not only does it NOT work, but leave behind this sticky messy wax that takes forever to remove. Warning, while it does not remove Hair, it will remove skin. I tired this on my upper lip, and still have the hair with a few scabs.
Would not recommend this product, will use the rest of the strips to catch flies
"new and improved' ISN'T

I loved the original surgi-wax. Then, I bought the "new improved" version with honey or maple or something. How horrid. It never hardened to the correct consistency. I mean, after 20 *minutes* it was still too soft to pull off (I found the original took about 30 seconds plus or minus). I've now got horrible red marks all over the area from me picking at the gooey mess trying to get it off (and it's now 24 hours later!). And it didn't pull the hair out either. If you can find the original, it's great, but this new stuff (as of June 2006) is aweful!
finally something that works!

I just signed online to see what i could use to get the excess off of my poor fingers, but am not at all upset. This stuff actually removed my hair rather than causing pain and leaving hair behind. I wish this stuff were a little easier to remove, and I'm sure it will take practice to become a pro, but as a first-time surgi-wax user (who has tried many other products) I am quite happy with these results. Had planned on doing just the bikini area and decided to do my entire body. I am quite impressed with this stuff.
it sucks
