Irina Shayk has proved once more that she has one of the best bodies in the industry.

The Russian model smoulders in a new bikini campaign for Colombian swimwear brand Agua Bendita, shot on a stunning beach.

What the photographs do not show is Shayk's new tattoo in honour of her late grandmother, which she unveiled in an Instagram video earlier this week.

The 28-year-old, born Irina Valeryevna Shaykhlislamova, tattooed the name of her grandmother in cyrillic script on the outside of her foot, below her ankle.

Galina Shaykhlislamova, who helped raise Miss Shayk and was an important figure during her childhood, passed away last December, aged 89.

Mrs Shaykhlislamova worked as a spy during World War II and enrolled in Stalin's Red Army when she was just 19 years old.

After the war, she was highly decorated for her role as an intelligence agent, during which time she made maps on the frontline that pinpointed Nazi locations.

When her grandmother passed away last year, Irina Shayk wrote a touching message which read: 'Rest in Peace my love. '

'You will forever stay in our memory as cheerful, kind, caring - one who loved this life. We love you and we are proud of you.

'Only a strong woman like you could have volunteered to go aged 19 to defend our motherland. We will love and remember you forever. You are our example to follow, strong and brave.'

Irina, who has been dating footballer Christiano Ronaldo since 2010, rose to fame after appearing in the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2007.

The 5ft10in Russian stunner has since been an annual feature in the swimsuit edition, gracing the cover in 2011.

After years of magazine covers, she has recently moved into acting, debuting as Megara in 2014 film Hercules, where Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson played the title role.

Most teenagers have to be content with pulling poses for Facebook snaps.

Not so for Kendall Jenner, who is continuing to make waves in the fashion world as she poses in a bikini for swimwear label Agua Bendita.

Standing against a sky-blue backdrop, the 17-year-old looked striking in a floral bandana and pink halterneck bikini top with mismatching bottoms.

Gazing over one shoulder, the bronzed fashionista wore floral accented hot pants and toted a matching pink bag.

Her trademark brunette locks rested against her collarbone, as if whipped by the wind on an exotic beach.

Kendall - who is no stranger to luxurious holidays with her famous family - looked right at home in the glamourous attire.

With hair, nails and make-up kept au-naturel, the photographer seemed keen to let the young model's natural beauty shine through.

In the video, the daughter of Kris and Bruce Jenner could be seen pulling poses like a pro on a sunny beach and by the pool of a modern mansion.

Irina Shayk smoulders in sexiest shoot ever as she poses underwater in skimpy bikinis

What a beach babe! Irina Shayk smoulders in sexiest shoot ever as she poses underwater in skimpy bikinis

If you thought Irina Shayk couldn't get any hotter, you'd be wrong. The Russian model is currently proving her sizzling hot credentials in new photos released by Colombian swimwear brand Agua Bendita.

The 27-year-old model, who has been dating Real Madrid footballer Cristiano Ronaldo for the past two years, showcases a range of tiny bikinis for the shoot, which takes place not only on a tropical beach somewhere warm and envy-making - so far, so normal (for Irina, anyway) - but also under water in a swimming pool.

Irina manages to look entirely composed during the submerged shots - despite having to hold her breath while maintaining her trademark pout and smouldering gaze.

Glamorous: The newly released photos come in addition to photos seen of Irina modelling for Agua Bendita last year

See? No matter what the doubters say, it really is hard to be a model.

No doubt contending with chlorine in her eyes and the curse of wrinkly fingers, Irina nevertheless somehow looks as sexy as she does on land.

Thankfully, in the next shots - released as the latest in a string of swimwear photographs from Agua Bendita's catalogue - Irina is back where she belongs on dry land, rolling about in the sand without a care (doesn't she hate it when it sticks to her like that?) and posing in the long grass of the dunes.

What a girl.
