Windex uses
1. Cleaning nonporous jewelry and stones
Do not use this cleaner on your opaque stones (like opals or pearls) or porous metals. Use this on hard stones and metals and they will shine them up great. Buff the stone using a soft cloth.
2. Dry up a pimple
Spot treat a pimple with Windex and a cotton swab. This cleaner contains ammonia and alcohol which are both great for drying out those blemishes.
3. Have ants?
I can personally attest to this one. Windex will kill ants and other little bugs in your house– INSTANTLY. Put some in a small bowl and it will attract the bugs and drown them.
4. Got a bug bite that’s swelling up?
Spray Windex on the bite. It’s a fast way to reduce the sting and swelling from a bee sting. Just be sure to take the stinger out first.
5. Ring too tight?
Windex to the rescue. No one knows why this works, but try it and you’ll see how easy the ring slides off.

You should never put window cleaner on your face! It has two ingredients that are "considered safe", but all the other chemicals are not safe for you or your body. This is why it says WINDOW CLEANER!
Not face cleaner, i'm pretty sure it probably says, not safe for human consumption or some kind of warnings pertaining to humans and animals! Please be smart, and check the warning labels. Please do your own research, just don't do what someone else tells you to do.
