Have you ever had a lusting for pizza but can't afford the cost of a cheesy topped slice (or 8) of heaven? Well I am going to show you how to spice up a cheap 63p pizza with the help of a bit of cheese and some frozen veg!
What you will need: A cheap pizza. I have a 63p Asda Smart Price Pizza here!! You will also need some cheese (ready grated or block, to be grated, what ever you have!) and some toppings of your choice! I've ransacked the freeze and I have some frozen sweet corn, onions, peppers, onions and prawns! Obviously you can put on there what ever you want, you can even just add cheese with no other topping!
Start off with your plain pizza! Looks a bit boring at the moment
Pop your toppings on top if you have gone for some. Start with the smallest things first, leading up to the chunkiest things at the top. I did onions, sweetcorn, mushrooms, peppers then prawns here.
Chuck on as much cheese as you want! I am a cheese-a-holic so I love lots and lots of cheese! The cheese can be your choice, I have grated mozzarella here!
Pop your pizza in the oven for how ever long it needs. Due to the fact you have more on there, it will probably take longer than says on the packet. I tend to cook it until the edges are getting brown and crispy and its hot in the middle (I stick my finger in but if you have a safer method I suggest that ;D I don't burn very easily!)
Take your pizza out the oven, let it cool down for a bit and the slice it up! And here you have a delicious cheesey yummy 63p pizza, jazzed up to YUM status!
Do you do some tips and cheats to spice up cheap boring food? Let me know! And let me know if you try this!

On The Cheap: Face masks!!
If you are anything like me, you love a good face mask!! Now, face masks can come in a variety of types and prices, and if you are like me too, you will be a cheap skate ha ha!
In this post I will be covering both home made and shop bought face masks that have worked for me and my friends!!
Personally, I loved using yoghurt and honey as a face mask!! I shall tell you about a few home made recipes me and my friends have tried!
One I tried was honey, milk and natural yoghurt! Now, when you make this mix, trust me, you don't need half as much as you think!! Only make a little bit, as it goes on quite thinly, but gives a good coverage. You might have to tilt your head back a bit as this mask can be quite runny! This is good for moisturising and also the honey helps with spots a little bit, as its antiseptic. That's why they say have some honey when you have a cough ;) This mask goes sticky after 5-10 minutes, so you won't have to worry too much about it running down your face the entire time its on!
I liked this mask as it was nice and moisturising and not harsh on my sometimes sensitive skin! It smelt delicious (please try not to eat your home made masks ;) ) and it was quick, easy and, most importantly, CHEAP.

Another home made mask that my friend made, on the same day, was one with strawberries! She just chopped up some raspberries very small and then mashed them up in a bowl, adding some honey to the mixture!! Once it was a good consistency, she smeared on her face! Now, I warn you, this one is sticky! But its very good for skin that breaks out, with the antioxidants from the strawberries, as well as the vitamins and minerals, and the antiseptic from the honey! This one also smells nice and it dries to a slight sticky consistency. Once washed off, her face was lovely and smooth and she said it felt really good!!

I know of a few types of mask, and as a Lush Lover, I do sometimes go for their face masks, but they aren't 'cheap' in the way we are looking at (though damn good value for money considering how many masks you can get out of them!)
Two of my favourite cheap face masks, that I buy from Superdrugs, are:
Montagne Jeunesse Passion Peel Off Masque |
Another mask I like to use on a Sunday, in my bath, apart from my Lush ones, are:
| Mudd Original Mask |
Now, I suggest you all try and make your own home made face mask, just once, whether its with your friends or alone, as its both fun and you know what's going into your mask!! And you can feel the benefits even from such simple ingredients! I suggest using a bit of honey in each mask, especially if you have spot prone skin! If you want to find some good home made mask recipes, go HERE. I love this website, I can spend hours trawling through it for ideas...so sad!
So, what do you think? Do you enjoy making home made masks? What's your favourite mask to use?
