Hello
Things like shopping carts, baskets, and the like are not available on blogs hosted here at WordPress.com.You can sell your handmade products, art, books, or digital products such as ebooks or courses on your site using your PayPal account. You can also solicit donations or tips from your readers using the PayPal button or link.
For more information on setting up a PayPal button or link in your content, please refer to our step by step guide.
Beyond that, if you want to keep the everything in one site, you should seriously consider a WordPress installation at a different hosting provider. A self-hosted, sometimes known as WordPress.ORG site, allows you to install plugins that give you great flexibility in what you can accomplish with your site. More information about self hosting is in:

Adding more information.
Granted that there is no secure payments system here at wordpress.COM, and you cannot add a shopping cart to create an online store to any sites hosted by wordpress.COM, regardless of upgrades, but creative cost-free workarounds have been developed and shared.
Provided you are selling only what you yourself make or a providing service that you personally provide on a wordpress.COM site, or you are asking for donations you have two options.
(1) PayPal – Know that the only instructions that will work for posting a PayPal donation button on a WordPress.com blog are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/
Note that the PayPal email link is not supported and PayPal customization options are not supported either https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/paypal-button-41?replies=12#post-2517229 This is not likely to be changed any time soon, if at all.Some bloggers create a contact form https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/ on a page and after the people have made a PayPal donation they provide the link to a private page for downloading files. Maybe that will work for you.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-visibility/(2) If you set up an eCommerce site somewhere else online you can create a custom menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/ and include a custom link to that site in it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-custom-links
If what I provided above at (1) and (2) do not suit you, then this guide will explain how to move your WordPress.com site to another hosting platform: Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress where you can set up a secure payment system http://move.wordpress.com

P.S. Re (2) above there are sites like this one https://www.etsy.com/ca/search?q=homemade%20cosmetics that you may want to look into joining and custom linking to.
