But I don't feel like shopping. If you can recommend a good one that requires a bit of shopping that would be fine. But here's what I have on hand, and I'd like to know what I can make with it with regards to facemasks or shampoos.

(I decided to list some ingredients I've seen in other recipes but was missing other ingredients to make)

Water (I should hope)
green tea
chamomille tea
kelp powder
cane sugar
cucumbers
carrots
tomatoes
potatoes
lemons
limes
baking soda
baking powder
whole wheat flour
I think I have cornstarch
maple sugar
some oils, vegetable, olive, and I think I have organic sunflower oil left
salt
charcoal
milk

So...recipes?

There is one recipe I found for a face mask that uses ground coffee, cocoa powder and whole milk. I thought I might use that, and add in a whole egg, since the egg white and egg yolk are used in recipes against dry or oily skin and my face can be both and a touch of lemon maybe to cleanse.
