What is Ameo Life?

Ameo Life  is a company that specializes in creating natural supplements which support overall health and well-being. The products are unique in that they contain silver. Sound a bit scary? Well, these contain a substance called structured silver, silver that bonds itself to water molecules. Basically, It means the silver can't separate from the water molecules and build up in our bodies. 

Some benefits of silver may include the ability to destroy bad bacteria, heal wounds, provide relief from inflammation, boost the immune system, and more. ***It's extremely important to use QUALITY silver products.

Ameo Life products are:

• Gluten Friendly
• Vegan Friendly
• GMP Certified
• Dairy Friendly
• GMO Free
• Made in the USA

A Closer Look

Ameo Life sent me 4 full-sized products to try. 

• pH Balanced Alkaline Silver Solution: designed to cleanse the gut of yeast, bad bacteria and mold. It's a safe and effective way to support digestive health.

• Extra Strength Silver Gel:  non-toxic, fast-absorbing gel that supports the skin.

• Oatmeal Spice Silver Soap: exfoliating soap infused with essential oils and safe for all skin types.

• Chelated Mulitvitamin: contains 18 essential vitamins and minerals, is rich in antioxidants, and helps increase energy and boost nutrient levels. 

*All of the above products are third party tested to ensure quality and efficacy. Please check the website for more information.

My Experience

First of all, the oatmeal spice soap smells amazing. Perfect for fall! It's smooth even though it contains oats, and it's even sudsy enough for shaving in the shower. I also like that it doesn't leave a ton of residue in the soap dish. I have used it on my face, but I've continued with my regular face routine as well. (My husband likes the soap too.)

I have experimented with combining a small amount of silver gel with my moisturizer and also using it separately before I put on moisturizer. Now, I'm trying it out on only one side of my face to see if I can tell a difference between the two. The gel is lightweight and seems to soak into my skin pretty quickly.  So far I haven't really noticed any changes in my skin since I started using it. I probably need more than 2 weeks to have a more substantial opinion. 

The first day that I included the silver solution and multivitamin in my diet, I experienced some pretty nasty heartburn and GERD symptoms--not typical for me. I decided to stop taking the vitamin but continue with the silver solution. I thought it was the vitamin causing the heartburn since the silver doesn't really smell or taste. After a week of this, I still had heartburn and that feeling that something was stuck in my throat. So, I stopped ingesting that too. 

I spoke to one of Ameo Life's cofounders on the phone about what was happening. He suggested that I may be having a herxheimer reaction which can happen when there's an overgrowth of yeast/bad bacteria. So, the silver solution was doing its job. Since I didn't want to live with constant heartburn, he suggested that I try again but only take 1/2 teaspoon instead of the recommended dose. So far, I am feeling ok and not having the same reaction that I did at first. Yay! He also reassured me that the solution was perfectly safe and that it was impossible for the silver (in this form) to build up in my system. Whew! I felt that he genuinely cared about my health and can't say enough about the great customer service I experienced. I plan to reintroduce the multivitamin soon. 

After I've finished using all of the products I received, I will come back here and give my final opinion. Feel free to ask me any questions!

My Memories Suite {Giveaway}

Pin It Now! *Updated ~ And the winner is Stacey T.!  Thanks for playing.  You can still use the coupon code below for $10 off the software and $10 for the My Memories store. :)

Scrapbooking used to be a high priority in my life.  I was even a Creative Memories Consultant at one point.  Those were the days before the birth of my third child and homeschooling. 

My third child is now six years old, and I still haven't finished her baby album.  I confess: life is busy, homeschooling takes up most of my time, and I'm tired.  Once I got behind in scrapbooking, it was hard to catch up.  Though not in boxes, my pictures are piling up in computer folders.

I try not to think about all those memories fading away, or I'll cry.  You can imagine my excitement when My Memories contacted me about reviewing the #1 rated -and affordable- scrapbooking software!

So, if you're like me and can no longer find the time for traditional scrapbooking, My Memories Suite digital scrapbooking software is the perfect solution!

With this software, you can create scrapbook pages, videos, calendars, cards, and so much more!  The following video explains from start to finish just how easy it is to use My Memories Suite.

Here is just a sampling of some of the pages I have created using this software.  I loved the fact that there was no mess to clean up! 

Most of these pages were created in a very short amount of time using available templates and designs on the software.  The "High Maintenance" page came from a free kit I downloaded from the My Memories site.  By the way, there are tons of free kits from which to choose!  I downloaded a bunch myself.

Here's the best part:  My Memories is giving away My Memories Suite Version 2.0 software to one lucky reader!  ($40.00 value!)

FRESHhanger {Giveaway}

Pin It Now! Congratulations to #3--Tammy and #1--Heather! Thanks for entering. :) Heather, I don't see contact info., and I am not sure which follower you are. Please contact me ASAP!



What is FRESHhanger?

-- a natural product that deodorizes clothing through the power of Activated Carbon.


What's so great about this product? First of all, it is natural, which is what initially caught my eye. Also, this product is a space-tested material that refreshes clothes from all kinds of unpleasant odors such as: smoke, food, and perspiration. FRESHhanger has the potential to save you big bucks, too, if you usually spend money on dry cleaning.



FRESHhanger is designed to fit right over your hangers. Just hang up your clothes as usual, and let deodorizing begin! FRESHhanger is fast-working--it reduces odor by 88% in just 4 hours.


It's convenient to use and fits hangers of all shapes and sizes. FRESHhanger is fragrance free, so odors are not merely masked. Product should be effective for up to 6 months. To learn more about FRESHhanger and the research behind Activated Carbon, please click the link.

My Personal Experience

I have to admit I was quite surprised at the effectiveness of this product. I was skeptical at first. When I took FRESHhanger out of its package there was absolutely NO smell, so I wondered how in the world it was going to work.

It just so happened that when I tried FRESHhanger out for the first time, my husband had returned from a trip to Tennessee where he spent most of his time on the river or near a campfire. Needless to say, his clothes reeked of smoke! Because I use fragrance-free laundry detergent, his clothes didn't smell any better after washing them.

So, I thought this was the PERFECT opportunity to test FRESHhanger's claims. I literally sniffed my husband's clothes every single day, and after a few days, I was shocked! The campfire odor was completely gone. I even made my husband sniff to make absolutely sure. His shirt really did smell fresh without harsh scents. His quote to me on the phone when he found out I was writing this post: "Wow, those really do work. When I put my shirt on, I was overwhelmed with freshness!"

*Since we don't have clothes that need to be dry cleaned, I will be using FRESHhanger for our coat closet this winter. I don't like to wash jackets every time we wear them.

Win a package of FRESHhanger to try out for yourself!

**I will choose 2 winners on Friday October 22, 12 noon Mountain time. Giveaway is open to U.S. residents only. Please make sure you leave a way for me to contact you if you win!

EcoStore USA {Giveaway}

Pin It Now!

*And the winner is Sharon! Congratulations and thanks to all who participated. :)

One of my passions is providing my family with as non-toxic of an environment as possible. I know it’s an unrealistic expectation to attain perfection in this area, but there are a few things that I can do as a mom to lessen the amount of toxins in my home. For instance, I have been using all natural products on my children’s skin for years, and for almost a decade I have considered myself a “green-cleaner”.

As you can imagine, I was thrilled when EcostoreUSA, a company committed to providing products that are safe for you and our environment, said they wanted to share some of their products with me!

It was like my birthday when I opened up the package of dishwash liquid and laundry liquid! I couldn’t wait to get my hand on some dirty dishes and dirty laundry! (Now that’s a first!)

I have washed everything from clothes to rugs with this product and I am very pleased with it’s performance. The fresh, clean aroma of eucalyptus oil got a thumbs up from one of my sons sitting at the kitchen table as I was filling up the washer!

My photo is a bit dark, but I wanted to show you just how sudsy the water was with just one tablespoon of laundry liquid in an almost medium sized load.

Two of my children have very sensitive, eczema prone skin, so I was concerned about using a new detergent. I am happy to report that their skin has responded just fine to wearing clothes washed in laundry liquid. No irritation whatsoever!

I also like using natural dish soap, especially since my kids use it frequently to wash dirty hands. Dishwash liquid has a very light, citrusy scent and suds just as nicely as laundry liquid.

This is just from one drop of soap in a cereal sized bowl.

And now for the best part of this review: EcostoreUSA wants to share some of their products, which range from baby care all the way to pet care, with you, too! One lucky winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to EcostoreUSA by email.

Here’s how to enter: please browse around EcostoreUSA’s site and leave a comment telling me which products you like best. (All generic comments will be disqualified.)

Earn extra entries by:

*becoming one of my bloggy followers :)

*sharing this post on facebook, twitter and/or your blog

*signing up for Ecostore’s “No Nasty Chemicals” newsletter

Please come back and leave a separate comment for each extra entry telling me what you did. Wow, so that’s a total of 5 possible extra entries! Good luck!

This giveaway will close next Saturday, Oct. 31 at midnight. Winner will be chosen by a random number generator. (Make sure you leave a way for me to contact you!)

Huggable Tee {Giveaway}

Pin It Now!

*Updated with winner! Congratulations to Micki W.! Since there is no contact info. please email me or Lee Ann. Thanks! And don't forget Lee Ann is offering a discount to those who didn't win on all her in stock shirts. See email below.

Sometimes I feel like I have a split personality. Unfortunately, I am this way about almost everything. Even when it comes to clothes. On one hand, I absolutely love to get all gussied up, but on the other hand, as a SAHM, (stay-at-home-mom) most of the time I just need something simple and comfy, which equals-- T-shirt.

Yep, I pretty much wear some sort of tee or tank five days a week. It’s something I can wear while scrubbing toilets but at the same time be presentable enough to answer the door or check the mail. (I save my nice shirts for when I have to go somewhere special like the grocery store or the library.) We SAHMS are fancy like that!

I don’t want to look too frumpy even though I spend my days cleaning cooking, homeschooling, and doing all the other home management stuff, so cute is always nice. “Cute” isn’t always attained but I can dream.

I think I have found the perfect t-shirt combination—simple, comfy and cute!

Lee Ann at www.cafepress.com/hugdesigns has come up with an adorable design that simply reads HUG. Now, who doesn’t need one of those? Lee Ann is giving one lucky winner a Women’s T-Shirt in solid brown with pink design, pictured below. (Retail value $18.00) Please leave a comment on this post, that will be your entry.

For all those who don’t win, Lee Ann is offering $5.00 off on all in-stock, t-shirt purchases only. Please email her at leeannsteepee@yahoo.com for sizes/styles. Most of her home inventory is of the brown/pink t-shirt, which is available in women’s and children’s sizes.

For a variety of products, like shirts, mugs, bags, etc., featuring the hug logo, please visit her site and place your order there. Many of these items would make lovely Christmas gifts! Sending one of these “hugs” in the mail would be perfect for out-of-town family and friends you won’t be able to hug in person during the holidays. And yes, in less than 90 days it will be Christmas!

I just love this apron!

And as a queen of notebooks, I would have to recommend this, too!

*This giveaway will close on Sunday, October 11th. Winner will be notified shortly thereafter, and t-shirt size can be determined then. Make sure to leave contact info in your comment.

**This giveaway open to US residents only.
