The ingredients in the face masks I make are gram flour, turmeric powder, honey, and milk. For how long can this be stored in a refrigerator? And also how often can I use it? Is using it every other day not good?

As long as milk is one of the ingredients in the homemade facial mask mixture, it won't be good to store it more than a week. The milk will spoil and make the mask stink when trying to use it again. I'd suggest that the next time you make this recipe that you cut it in half. That way there won't be a need to store it in an airtight container in your refrigerator.
You may want to add a preservative to this mask. It is not safe with the milk and water content. The milk will spoil much quicker because of the other ingredients and if the mask is not kept refrigerated at ALL times it will develop bacteria.
I would use it within a week. That's how long milk stays fresh.
I'd only keep it for days at a time as it's got dairy in it. Don't use it too often as it's not needed that often.
You can store for one week if you use milk longer if you do not.
Keep it covered well.You should only do a facial once no more than twice a week.
