A loss-prevention officer who spotted the theft Wednesday followed the man to the restroom, where he walked into a stall and apparently applied the product.
Then the officer watched as the suspect walked to the store's toy section and exposed himself twice in the Barbie Doll aisle, police say.

Disgruntled worker 'froze customer's bank account in revenge prank'
A bank customer who criticized an "unhelpful" worker at an Indian call center has alleged the clerk played a revenge prank on him by freezing his account and changing his identity to that of a Ugandan divorcee.
George Bates, 23, said he found the operator at Abbey's call center to be "rude and arrogant" and gave him a low rating in a post-call customer satisfaction survey.
However, when the self-employed carpenter later rang the bank he was unable to access his account for "security reasons".
Mr Bates alleged that the operator had "obviously seen that I have given him bad feedback and has decided to change all my details in revenge."
He added: "When I heard my details had been changed to Ugandan I was terrified that my account had been emptied by somebody else and I would never get my money back."
Mr Bates said the episode began when he contacted Abbey's telephone banking service on September 23 to extend his overdraft to cover direct debits.
The operator, who spoke with an Asian accent, extended the overdraft from £1,500 to £1,700. But when Mr Bates later asked to extend the overdraft further, the operator refused as the limit could not be changed twice in one day.

Clean up underneath ride nets bizarre items
The 28-year-old Corkscrew, which cost £1.25m, was Europe's first double-looped rollercoaster.
The leg was just one of many bizarre items found near The Corkscrew, which is to be dismantled after carrying 43.5 million people since it opened in 1980.
Staff clearing the site also found underwear, a diamond wedding ring, 53 non-matching shoes and 604 watches.
Other lost property items included 800 pieces of jewelry, 237 mobile phones, thousands of caps and a prosthetic ear.
The ride, which reaches speeds of up to 44mph (70km/h), opened on 4 April 1980.
'Missing leg'
Riders are turned upside down twice within three seconds - which probably explains the large amount of lost items found below.
The Staffordshire amusement park said it was used to dealing with more than 5,000 items of lost property, such as car keys, money and mobile phones.
