BRB, We're Copping Andi Eigenmann's Summer Surf Essentials For Our Next Beach Getaway

Surf is life, and so is skincare and body care! Actress, businesswoman, and your favorite local island girl Andi Eigenmann shared her favorite ways to protect both skin and hair from sun damage while surfing, all while staying environmentally conscious and reef-safe.

In a recent Instagram reel, Andi showed us how she preps for a surf sesh—and thankfully, she included the products she used!

"For the most assumed assumption about me: 'pinabayaan nya talaga ang sarili nya' ('She let herself go when she moved to the island'). People often assume that just because I love being under the sun or in the ocean, I don't care about my skin's health," Andi said in the caption.

"PSA it's not the sun itself that ruins your skin—it's neglecting to protect it. This is exactly why I make the effort to care for it even more," she added.

And the best part? You can use the same surf-friendly essentials on your next beach trip. Keep on reading to learn more:

Zinc sunscreen is a favorite among athletes who spend long hours under the sun, especially surfers. It’s not just effective; it's also fun, with colors like blue, white, pink, and nude available, depending on what’s in stock. For Andi, her go-to is the The Original - Tinted Covering Cream from the Australian brand Surf Mud.

Its main active ingredient is non-nano zinc oxide, which makes it safer for your skin. Unlike chemical sunscreens, it forms a protective barrier that sits on the surface of your skin rather than being absorbed into your body. That also means it's less harmful to coral reefs and marine life, helping avoid issues like coral bleaching often linked to chemical sunscreens.

Too often, we forget that lip care deserves just as much attention as skincare! Our lips have the most delicate skin on our body, and they need sun protection just as much. For Andi, her go-to is the Beach Hut SPF 100 Lip Sunscreen, which offers up to SPF 100 protection. It's water-resistant and delivers up to 72 hours of moisture, making it perfect for fun, sun-filled adventures.

Ever had that icky, dry feeling after a beach trip or swim when your hair turns frizzy and feels stripped of moisture? Andi shares her holy grail product that keeps her hair healthy and manageable even after hours under the sun: the Pre-Swim Hair Mask from the scuba diver-founded brand Kook.

This hair mask is made with vegan, ethically sourced ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter, and bentonite clay. It provides up to eight hours of protection—no reapplication needed—and shields your hair from harsh UV rays. Plus, it's water-resistant, so you can dive right in without worrying about damage.
