I've been purchasing sugar scrub from a place on earth for many years. They have wonderful products. The staff is courteous and friendly and very helpful. It's worth the trip to Cape May. read more

Having found the APOE factory at the nearby Cape May County airport grounds, I was eager to check out their retail store located on Washington Mall in downtown Cape May. Note: the "mall" is outdoors, a brick paved plaza stretching along multiple blocks - a result of reclaimed former street space. I smelled the wonderful scents before I saw the store. It's on the lower level of a historic building. You access via stone steps, descending partly below the street level. Inside is a treasure trove of delightful bath and body product, mostly from APOE. There are other maker products there, such as my favorite Tokyomilk perfumes, and there are comfy fluffy bathrobes and such. Staff were wonderful. I was able to pick up an excess monthly subscription box of their products, which I was super happy about. Definitely worth the trip to downtown. read more

A Place On Earth - Entry - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

Loved finding this small business on a recent trip to cape may. Staff was nice and helpful, so many great scents and products (soaps, lotions, sprays, and amazing body scrubs.). Sex on the beach was one of my favorite scents but they had so many great smelling products, it's hard to choose! the best part is their products are clean, minimal ingredients. I plan to order online from them also. read more

This store is so cute!! It smells absolutely amazing too. We went in saying we would not be buying any soap this year, and came out with 3 bath bombs...SMH.. We stop here every year and every year the staff is always super nice and the store is always well stocked and clean. read more

I've been in this shop over the years and I decided to pop in the other day. I'm glad I did! I ended up finding some very cute cards for various occasions, a small canvas bag that I plan to use for my costume jewelry when traveling, and numerous pieces of funky unique jewelry. It is certainly worth peaking in this shop as you stroll around Washington Street Mall. read more

Do you know what this place is worth? A Place On Earth is a place on Earth. Belinda Carlisle told me so. This is a lovely little - somewhat expensive - gift shop in Cape May. Right in the middle of the cute little quaint tourist shopping area. We had fun checking it out and will definitely be back next time we're in town. read more

A Place On Earth - Ooh baby do you know what that's worth - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

You wont be able to walk past this place without smelling the luscious smells of the soaps. I highly suggest making a pit stop in here. They have soaps and other bath & body needs, for anyones favorite scents. my favorite part? its all local and hand made. You can even get some free samples. good staff, very helpful. read more

Been a customer since they opened and I've tried . I really have tried to leave Cape May without stopping here, but it's impossible. Walking down Washington Street mall the fresh scents hit my nose, intoxicating me and drawing me in. Once in, I am captivated by the smells, the Rainbow colors, the selection of soap and bath related accents. Their sugar scrubs which are available in a multitude of scents have become a year-long staple in my routine. The ones I have purchased smell fantastic the second you take the lid off. They go on smoothly and leave my skin soft, glowing and youthful. Their body butter is the only thing I have ever found that keep my hands from becoming dry in the winter. Last year I tried a tiny bit at bedtime and my wintertime hands felt great for 24 hours for the first time ever! Earth is a local family owned business taking pride in their earthy products. I love this so much I buy here often. Just finished my Christmas shopping at Earth. read more

thank you for my order of coconut lemongrass body butter, cape may soap and the free soap i received, this order came fast and wrapped nicely, verygood customer service!! read more

I absolutely LOVE this business and their products! I've been a huge fan for almost 20 YEARS! Not only are their products (my personal favs are the bath salts, bath bombs, sugar scrubs, soaps, candles, lotions & home 'thingys') absolutely AMAZING... The customer service, professionalism, dedication to creating and delivering OUTSTANDING products AND the warmth of the owners, whether you go to store OR order online is SUPERB!!!! As a small business owner... I personally and heartily APPLAUD y'all for being so great and consistent for so many years! Can't wait to get down there! read more

I have been shopping here for years. An annual truck to Cape May and stock up on soaps and scrubs for a few months. Love the scents and customer service. read more

Love this place! My mother in law is big on homemade soaps, so I always stock up when I come here for her. They have so many different scents and are always making new ones. Most of the soap flavors are also available in scrubs, and they recently started selling candles as well. The salespeople are always so friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to help with whatever you need. read more

Quality product.! Large size, so it's a good value and the best aspect for me was free shipping!!

Emily R hit on it the best. This is a homemade, local mom-and-pop version of Lush type proportions (except for the non-guarantee of organic products). It is a great place for small gift add-ons though. They have everything from large chunks of soap (they cut the amount you want) to sugar scrub to bath salts...even tub tea! I ended up scooping up a Lemongrass bath bomb (what can I say, I'm a sucker for citrus!) and the employee also threw a couple soap samples in as well. The bottom of the receipt also had a coupon for 10 or 15% off the bath scrub(no expiration date, woo-hoo!) Not a bad way to go if you want a gift and want to support a local business. (I'll update about the lemongrass bath bomb after I try it!) read more

I love the scents in this place!!! I've been buying soap here for years. their staff is very knowledgeable about their soap bars, body products and their ingredients. Their soaps are made all natural in Cape May and haven't bothered my sensitive skin! The soap scents are great, and the names for them are Genius! My favorite scents are Sex on the Beach, Covfefe, Death by Chocolate, Cool Cape May, and Ginger Fish. They also have some bath bombs, which also smell great. My favorite scent (and name) is the Monkey Farts bath bomb. They recently made a strawberry donut shaped one that looks good enough to eat! Also they have some great sugar scrubs too. Again I prefer the Cool Cape May Scent, or Sex on the Beach. I always love going in and smelling something new. Highly recommend Place on Earth! read more

A Place on Earth is similar to Lush, if you've ever been there. They make their own products - soaps, scrubs, bath salts, etc. When you walk in, there's huge chunks of soap that they cut from for customers to buy. They have pretty unique and interesting scents and I love how you can serve yourself. Choose a container and ladle in whichever sugar scrub you want from the sink-like counter. The bath salts are also self-serve. I would buy much more here if the prices were a little lower, but they are an independent business, not a chain, so low prices are not necessarily expected. Very friendly and helpful staff. read more

This is my absolute favorite soap on earth! Every year I am in Cape May I stock up on soaps from here. A Place on Earth is a small store located at the "mall" in Cape May, where they make their own products. Soaps are cut from larger bars, and then weighed and wrapped in paper. There are so many scents to choose from, and many times have seasonal scents available. You can help yourself to bath salts and sugar scrubs, both which I can say are wonderful. My favorite scents are Monkey Farts (banana, coconut and lime) and Orange Ginger (orange, ginger, cinnamon). This year I found two new products to love - the body spread and Shampoochie dog soap. The body spread is made from shea butter and does not feel greasy on your skin, yet it moisturizes and makes your skin so soft, with an added scent. The dog soap bar lathers better than any dog shampoo and smells great! I have a white dog and it worked just as well as the brightening shampoos. I will be stocking up on this to pamper my pet! While the prices are a little expensive, I think it's worth the price. The soaps moisturize your skin and lather right until the end. No more throwing away those little pieces of soap. The staff is great too, and you always get little samples to try. As you can see, I love this store. I recommend it to all my friends and many of them are hooked just like me. read more

This place is fun every time I visit. Had a nice chat with owner Rose Allen and liked the store even more after speaking to her. As long as I come to Cape May I will always stop at A Place on Earth (the sugar scrubs are my favorite!!!) read more

Great place! The door was unlocked yet NO ONE was in there! What the actual hell is this place? I just wanted to buy some soap! Put up a sign and lock the damn door if you're closed! read more

Such a cute little shop with great customer service and products! We stopped at the location next to Cape May Brewing just to see what they had and we were pleasantly surprised. I believe we actually spoke to the owner while he was working on some new products. I purchased a few bath bombs, but everything else looked great. Would love to come back and try some of the candles. read more

I love this place! It is so cute and has so much stuff. Everything is very unique. There is not only bathe bombs, salts, and soap bars but there is also little bracelets, candles, bags, and gifts. The only problem I have with this store is that it is very pricey. One thing we did, since we have been there before, is we brought back our old bathe salt container and got a discount(more than $3) off when we refilled it. Great place! read more

A Place On Earth - Our two bags after shopping here! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

Love the mermaid at midnight perfume! Very nice place friendly and helpful.

A local Cape May guide book states that a 'Place on Earth is like no place on Earth', which goes to show it was written by a man. A Place on Earth is so wanna-be Lush I am surprised that they haven't been sued for theft of intellectual property. The prices are just as high too, for product that may be "homemade" -actually I find that concept scary- but doesn't have the commitment to ecology and green living that Lush does or the over-the-top- luxuriance. Shoppers may be lulled by the similarlty between the two stores to think homemade means green but A Place on Earth doesn't actually make that claim. I tried three of their products and every single one of them was a complete waste of money. No moisturizer, no exfollient, not even any SCENT none at all! And they were supposed to have all 3. The website is still in major need of editing- they might want to break down and actually get someone with a Lit degree to proofread it- but it is not quite as howlingly laughable as when the place first opened. At least it seems to be doing ok off the tourist trade and the catchy sign gets people into the basement-level of the building that previously had a hard time staying open. Me, I go to Good Scents when in town. read more

A Place On Earth, truly deserves five stars. The products are outstanding and I have been a customer for many years. I recently had a slight glitch with a shipping cost, and I emailed A Place On Earth, the next day, I spoke with Rose the owner, who insured me she credited my charge card for the shipping costs. She was gracious and understanding. She even sent me the credit card refund slip with a very nice note. I will continue to shop here and I really appreciate the honesty and integrity of the owner! She deserves a "Star on the Honor Roll"! read more

I would never support this store- I called to ask if they were open, they were, I told the woman we were on our way. 15 minutes later we arrived and the door was locked. I knocked, the woman was chewing and said yeah I closed. She couldn't have cared less. read more

As the guy working the cash register told me: "This is the house that soap built!" This is such a great little soap bar. They also have really cute little gag gifts and other grab and go products. They even gave me some samples to take home and try. Very friendly folks found here! You should also check out their sugar scrub bar. It looks like an gelato bar. So cute. Please refrain from tasting... you will deeply regret it. read more

I really like this store. Very simple and unique homemade soaps, scrubs, and other bath related items. No overwhelming smells when you walk in either. My favorite soap is 'Aurora", and scrub is "Cape May". This store is a "must see".! read more

This is my favorite shop to visit when I go to cape may, but it was not open the last time I went. So I ordered my favorite spray online. I received it only four days later!! Not only did I get what I ordered, I got a large soap sample and a hand signed thank you as well!!! read more

My family and I love this store. The soaps are great and also make wonderful thank you gifts for our various friends and family. The online store was easy to use and made for great stocking stuffer @ Xmas. read more

Monkey Farts is the best smell...you have to try it out...go to the sugar scrub bar and fill up a container...Enjoy

I was just in Cape May early September. The store front & name so catchy that I went in. I purchased two soap stones after being told they were great for calloused feet, knees & elbows. As soon as it hit water it practically melted away. Very moisturizing though. Good for a cute gift shop. I agree Very Pricey ! read more

I'm one who is hesitant to try homemade beauty products. However, after purchasing soap from this amazing store and using it exclusively, I am sold. The quality of the soap is amazing, the olive oil makes it the perfect consistency. And, there are many fragrances that are suitable for men -- a rarity in such places. read more

I love A Place On Earth. Yes, it is more expensive than buying mass produced soaps at the grocery store, however it is worth it. It lasts longer than the same size bar of "regular" soap. They have many scents to chose from, and always have seasonal scents. And I never had service with anything less than a smile. read more

This place is def one of a kind!!! When I walked into the store I was amazed at all the different things they sold! I was searching for chocolate lotion and body spray. They were all out but the nice man who worked there went right back and made me some! Excellent customer service!!!! Can't wait to go back! read more

I have tried many natural soaps and A Place on Earth is by far superior than any other natural soaps -- I love so many of their soaps. I am totally addicted! The shop is so creative and adorable and the people are so nice! It's the first place I go to when I'm in Cape May. Unfortunately, I am a few hours away but I order online on a regular basis. They always include samples in with my order so I can try different scents. I also love their sugar scrubs (and so many other products and accessories)! I read the review about A Place on Earth being a wanna-be Lush. I'm not sure where that is coming from since there are many natural soap shops now since people are more interested in natural products. I have bought soap at Lush in the past, but no longer do since I have discovered A Place on Earth! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their products!!! read more

Every time I go to Cape May, I go to A Place On Earth. Their scrubs, soaps and body Butter are the best! "Cool Cape May" is my favorite scent. Light, clean and brings back memories of the beach in the dead of winter. Their body butters are soft and creamy and absorb right into the skin. I will be totally happy when they come out with a "Cool Cape May" scent in the body Butter, too. Good, wholesome products and friendly, courteous helpful staff. read more

Okay, that one reviewer that gave this place two stars is such a smacked A$$. I love the fact that you walk down stairs to get into the place. it gives it the feel of a hidden treasure. I absolutely love how everything is made fresh daily like the amazingly scented sugar scrub. I think the "Deli Style" serve yourself bar is a cute idea too. I also got some of the scoop t yourself bath salt and it smells amazing. the cool cape may scent smells exactly like Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker but without the heavy price tag attached. I know people think this place is too pricey, and it is a little steep, but think about it, these people work hard to make these products homeade every day. That takes a lot of raw materials and talent, therefore the prices have to be high like any mom and pop bussiness like this. Keep up the good work A Place On Earth! read more

loved the decor ! bought a few soaps to bring home, my favorite : monkey farts. don't let the name scare you. it's a combination of coconut , lime & banana read more

I stopped by here during a recent vacation to Cape May. I could not be happier with my experience in the store! Their product selection is varied and unique, and all staff was extremely helpful and courteous. They have a combination of items that are both for spa and home decor, and I am definitely planning on getting some of the little pottery pieces I saw there. They even threw in some free samples of soaps as they wrapped up my order! read more

LOVE this store. My family has a house in wildwood crest, and I make it a point to always come to this store. I just went last month and bought the cuban mojito bath bomb and I must say it is the most relaxing bath bomb I have ever tried. Amazing! I gave 4 stars, because it is quite over priced, however, they give you a coupon each time you shop there which is nice! read more
