Is it just direct sunlight that's bad for e-juice that is going through the steeping process? or is just any light at all bad for it ?because I was receiving juice from a website and was actually unaware that it was not pre steeped and was leaving the juice on a table right next to a window in my living room but I never open it
Unsteeped ejuice question?

Well, it will probably be more steeped, but some juices arrive needing steeping anyway. If it was in a dark glass jar, it's likely less oxidized. I'm noticing flavors I am using now are still changing in their flavor profiles, I leave them out, but our house has those AZ prison bars on it, it doesn't get much direct sunlight in any case....

Oxygen, infra-red radiation (heat) and ultraviolet radiation are the "enemies" in long term storage.
That said,
I always shake (oxygenate) my mixes and have used sunlight (think sun tea) as a steeping aid.
Open it and taste/vape it. If it is un-steeped, it gives you a base line, if it's good already...Vape on.

Light will turn the nicotine darker and long term exposure to sunlight is not good. A few hours or days probably not going to have much effect. Best to steep it in the dark though and shake every day or so for a few days.
how does one steep a liquid with no solids in it??
We don't.
We're "melding" or "blending" flavor and carrier molecules, not steeping... but it's a misnomer that caught on, and we're pretty much stuck with it now.
