I found this at walmart and it was gone the next time I looked for it. It is perfect for my dry hands. Does anyone know where I can find the jar and not the bottle or tube.

Yes, it smelt like lemon cookies.
However, despite it's thickness and texture suggesting serious help for my dry, chapped skin, it just didn't deliver the moisture I needed AT ALL! A sad disappointment!
If you're buying a lotion/cream for its scent, this is a nice one. If you are looking for moisture, keep looking. continued >>

I got this from Wal-Mart for less than $4. What a steal!! It smells like lemon cookies with vanilla frosting. YUMMY!! It leaves your skin nicely scented and moisturized without being overly greasy. This is a thick creme that comes in a jar. I wish it came in a tube so I wouldn't have to dip my fingers in. I love it. I never would have thought to buy a Watkins product before this because it seems like an old-fashioned brand since they've been around forever.

Lovely lemon poppyseed muffin scent (almost too true to life, I want to lick myself lol), the consistency is perfect- butter but smooth not oily. Will not repurchase in this fragrance because this scent tends to clash with my perfumes, but will certainly repurchase in the Green Tea & Aloe scent! continued >>

Dirt cheap, but very moisturizing cream. Smells just like lemon vanilla cupcakes and scent lasts. Can be thick and little hard to smooth onto skin, but moisturizes well.

A friend lend me her hand cream and it smelled like a highend lemon cupcake store. Absolutely delicious if you like sweet scents that smell edible. It's a very nice thick quality cream and for the price, it's a steal! Definitely worth trying.

I got this product as a gift from a co-worker. I LOVE it! It smells way better than Tommy Hilfiger's Lemon Pie lotion and the CG Bigelow (I think that's what it's called?) from B& B Works. The scent is perfect. I would prefer that the lotion came in a tube or pump, but I'm not complaining too much! I'd buy it again in the tub! continued >>

Love this product. I originally bought Marks Self Sanctuary Lemon Sugar in lotion and body spray. When I started to run out of the Marks lotion, I wanted to find a cheaper alternative. I found it in Watkins Lemon Creme Shea Butter. It was less expensive. I got a 4.6oz jar for $3.49 at my local Duane Reade. It layers well with the Self Sanctuary body spray and smells very similar. Has a light lemon and vanilla scent that lasts all day. Very moisturizing too. Would definitely buy again.

This hand cream is one of the best I've tried thus far. It smells like freshly baked lemon bars... I seriously want to lick my hands when I put this on. It feels rich and creamy without being greasy. Sinks in quickly and moisturizes forever, my hands look so soft and healed after the stress of a coffee shop. I think I will buy the lavender to put on at night, a little more soothing than waking up to the smell of naked goods... But if that's your thing!

Smells very lemony at first then changes into this sweet sugary smell when it absorbs. I prefer the lemon smell but both are fine. Very very thick cream and a little goes a long way, great price and it works well on both hands and dry cracked heels. A lot of creams work great on me at first and then stop working they start to feel heavy whenever I apply them and I have to switch to another product, this hasn't happened with this cream (it's been about 3 months now). I took off one lippy because if I overapply or reapply too soon it gets really tacky on my skin and does not absorb. Will repurchase.

Yummy! Smells like lemon icing:) It really does smell edible, not chemically at all! I originally bought this just because of the delicious scent, but I've come to love this product for its performance abilities as well. The ingredients are amazing; shea butter is the second ingredient after water. It also contains macadamia seed oil, cocoa butter, apricot oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, and jojoba oil. It absorbs very quickly and isn't greasy at all. Keeps my dry hands moisturized for hours. J.R. Watkins is a great brand that is widely available (got mine at Wal-Mart) and cheap - well worth trying!!

Found these on clearance at Wal-Mart too - $2.00 each. Is a very thick cream but doesn't get greasy, perfect for night-time use or those rough spots. Has an absolute delicious scent - not too heavy, not headache-y. It hydrates even the heels of my feet (my roughest area!!) and just makes my skin feel velvety smooth. I love these!! I am definitely going to pick up some more!

It really does smell like lemon cookies or lemon cake!!!
I love it in all ways, except I am addicted to Watkins creme in Lavender.
Funny thing is that I love to put the (Lavender) salve and hand lotion on at night, which is what someone said they like to do with the Lemon creme! A big thank you to Watkins for taking us happily to dream land!

OMG I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!! The scent makes me want to lick my skin off! Its a wonderful lemon creme...and my hubby has begged me to find a perfume that smells like it--IF ONLY I COULD!!! It smells soooooo much better than the CO Bigelow Lemon Creme from Bath n' Body!!! I use it every night and slather my arms/hands with it and they are always soft. I've tried the lotion version, its a lighter formula and not quite as moisturizing, but to be able to put it all over my body and smell awesome is worth it. This also comes in lavendar and vanilla scents but by far my fav is lemon creme! Buy it...you'll love it!

Wow, is all I have to say. Thanks to the folks who recommended this to me... I've finally found the perfect lemon scent! I've tried so many lemon lotions that were just too tart, too Pledge-like, not foody enough. Listen to the hype on this one. It smells just like a sweet lemon cupcake, so if you are looking for something zesty or a true citrus scent, you might want to skip this. Not only does it smell deliciously edible, but it also moisturizers well (it contains shea & cocoa butter, plus tons of other oils). It's not greasy at all, but I do find it thick and a little waxy. I can't see myself rubbing this all over my body, it's more suited for your hands, cuticles, elbows, knees, etc. I think I'll pick up the body lotion version of this which is thinner and more runny. Hopefully the scent is exactly the same!
Basically you can't go wrong with this cream. It smells yummy, it's dirt cheap, it's made by a trusted apothecary company, and is easy to find online and in stores. One lippie off for it's slight waxiness and the unfortunate fact that the scent doesn't last very long. continued >>

After trying a lemon creme lotion from the high dollar place and one from a large retail drug store, I decided to try the Watkins after reading some reviews. I think I'm in love again! This is great stuff and I plan to always have it on hand.

I purchased this at the recommendation of one of the ladies on the nail board. This has become my HG cuticle cream. I could tell a big difference in just one application. It moisturizes really well. Also, I love foody scents and this one is amazing and long lasting (at least for me it is.) I am glad that I am not dieting because I would probably gnaw off my own fingers since this stuff smells so darn edible. I will continue to buy unless something better comes along.

I picked up this amazing cream for only $8.99 (the pump bottle) the other day at the grocery store. I was immediately impressed with the true likeness of its lemon miringue pie scent. My skin is so soft not greasy after I use this and I smell like a lemon pie after. It soaks in immediately as well. The only minus is that the scent doesn't last that long----good though for people who don't want a strong scent that they carry around all day.
I was also impressed with the list of ingredients as they appear to be mostly all-natural, flower extracts. If you like foody scents then this is one to buy! Don't let the price fool you. After having discovered such a wonderful foody scent that makes a difference for my skin I may not buy any of the Body Shop body butters again.
