Products that you can buy online to help cool down your car

Car Seat Cooling Fan

[shoppable:3018]

Air conditioning is your best friend once you get in your car that's been outside all day. But with this heat, it might need a little more support. This cooling fan can be attached to that gap between the seat and the headrest so you can feel the breeze even from the back. You can also switch it around and have the fan face the passenger in the backseat. To charge it, you just have to use a USB-C charger.

Available for P489 (from P1,647) on Lazada.

Retractable Car Sunshade

The sunshades you see in cars are usually the foldable shiny silver foam that you have to set up every time you use them. This retractable version simply attaches to the inner side of the windshield through suction cups. When you're not using it, you can just retract it back to the side without obscuring your full view while driving.

Available for P499 (from P1,730) on Lazada.

Foldable Car Sun Umbrella

If you yourself need an umbrella when you're out on the street, then so does your car. This umbrella-like sunshade functions like an inside umbrella that you open and prop up on the inside against your windshield. When it's not in use, you can just close it like you would a regular umbrella and store it in your glove compartment/

Available for P134.10 (from P700) on Lazada.

Magnetic Car Windshield Cover

This thick universal windshield cover can be attached to the outer side of your windshield through the rear view mirrors. Whereas other covers used on the inside allow heat to penetrate the car, this one already prevents it from the outside. It also uses magnets to keep the cover in place.

Available for P320 (from P460) on Lazada.

Side Window Sunshade Cover

[shoppable:3021]

The windshield isn't the only part of your car that needs protection from the heat. Covering your side windows can also keep the heat at bay—plus, your passengers will probably be thankful for the additional coverage, too. These magnetic window shades attach to the frames of the car door from the inside so you can still open the window to let fresh air in but still keep the bright light out.

Available for P309 (from P560) on Lazada.
