I'm planning on making yogurt facial masks to sell, but I'm not really sure how to store it and or if it'll go bad after so long. All of the other ingredients that I'm using can be kept at room temperature, but the plain yogurt is throwing me off on how to go about it.

The yogurt mask will need to be refrigerated. Usually a week shelf life but if it smells bad, I'd toss it.
You can sell the facial mask mixture in a glass container.
Yogurt spoils. I would suggest it be refrigerated.
Wishing you lots of luck with your new venture! How exciting!
I suggest that you contact your local heath department or department of health and talk to them before you proceed. While you are not using a food product as food, it is a product that can spoil and could cause issues with a client if not handled properly. They can give you all the info you need to make sure you are following the law/ordinances/standards needed for such a venture.
You can find them in Google with your town name + department of health or DOH.
I would also suggest, if you haven't already, talk to your local Small Business Development Center and work with them to help you get your business off the ground.
Most of their services are free or low cost (paid by tax money). This link will get you to where you can find a local office.

Lots of good wishes to you!!
Will you be selling to local shops? If so, many of those will have refrigeration so that might be an option.
