Great Watkins Recipes

Back in the 1860's, people on the Minnesota prairie didn't have ready access to doctors, and most couldn't afford to see one anyway. J.R. Watkins Apothecary provided quality products folks could rely on to make them feel better and keep them feeling better. And unlike some of the "snake oil" vendors out there, J.R. backed his products with a money-back guarantee. Of course, we weren't the only Apothecary company back then - but we're the only one left! With Watkins, you don't just get a glimpse into the past; you get real tried-and-true products that have been helping people for over 140 years!

Watkins proudly formulates with natural raw materials such as:
Menthol, Capsicum, Thymol, and Eucalyptus Oil

On many of J.R. Watkins Natural Apothecary products, you will see the seal of the Natural Products Association (NPA). This seal ensures compliance with the NPA's standard for personal care products. To gain certification, products must be formulated with at least 95% natural ingredients from renewable resources. Watkins is one of the first companies to gain this coveted certification!

Using renewable and plentiful ingredients from Mother Earth, we provide luxurious personal care products that are free of synthetic and irritating chemicals. Let J.R.
