green tea and chamomile tea cooled down is a great toner for the face, and anti inflammatory/anti aging too.
Turmeric is also a greeat anti aging anti inflammatory spice to use in face masks, along with oats or avocado and a bit of honey.
The lip balm recipe can double up as a hard body butter bar (like the Lush massage bars), which melts on contact with your skin..they are also called "lotion bars" just pour it into cheap silicone baking mold.. I use heart shaped ones,or you can add a tiny bit extra oil and whip it. and add some cheap essential oils like citrus oils, as they are cheap as chips. It's worth getting a few raw ingredients from ebay or amazon.. shea butter/beeswax/cocoa butter/coconut oil, as you can then make stuff for pennies.. There are a tonne of beauty recipes on blogs and on youtube!

For body scrubs, especially for this summer you can try mixing olive oil with salt and using it in the shower to scrub before washing it off with soap. It is super efficient
