Sunscreen. Ironically enough, sunscreen is best left in the shade. It’s formulated to work best at room temperature. If it’s left in the heat, the chemical composition can start to break down, and it will start to lose its effectiveness.
Glasses. The heat can warp the lenses and frames of sunglasses and prescription glasses. Having your designer frames melt on the dash is a serious day ruiner.
Electronic Devices. You should NEVER leave electronic devices in your car for long periods of time. Make sure you put things like cameras, cell phones, and GPS units in the glove box so they’re out of the sun and out of thieves’ sight. The extreme temperatures can ruin the device’s screen, battery, and other parts of the electronic.
Medicine. Similar to sunscreen, leaving medicine in the car too long can result in a chemical change that can make the medicine less effective or not effective at all.
