In a hilarious new video from "Funny or Die", Nina Dobrev** caresses herself in a bikini while rapping about suntan lotion.

Showing off her toned beach bod, the "Vampire Diaries" damsel spits out lyrics about going to the beach and the importance of suntan lotion, all while dancing around and lathering herself up with SPF.

Joined by "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" actor Nick Braun, Nina sings out the lyrics, "See I got the notion to head up to the ocean, stop! Forgot my sun tan lotion".

After the song was released, the 23-year-old encouraged others to take heed of her tune's message, as she tweeted, "Buy SPF on iTunes and protect yourselves from harmful rays today! HAPPY 4TH HAVE FUN! ;)".
