As a new mom,
Jessica Alba wanted to create the safest, healthiest environment for
her family. But she was frustrated by the lack of trustworthy
information on how to live healthier and cleaner—delivered in a way that
a busy mom could act on without going to extremes. In 2012, with serial
entrepreneur Brian Lee and environmental advocate Christopher Gavigan,
she launched The Honest Company, a brand where parents can find reliable
information and products that are safe, stylish, and affordable. The Honest Life shares the insights and strategies she gathered along the way.
The Honest Life
recounts Alba’s personal journey of discovery and reveals her tips for
making healthy living fun, real, and stylish, while offering a candid
look inside her home and daily life. She shares strategies for
maintaining a clean diet (with favorite family-friendly recipes) and
embraces nontoxic choices at home and provides eco-friendly decor tips
to fit any budget. Alba also discusses cultivating a daily eco beauty
routine, finding one’s personal style without resorting to yoga pants,
and engaging in fun, hands-on activities with kids. Her solutions are
easy, chic, and down-to-earth: they’re honest. And discovering everyday
ways to live naturally and authentically—true to you—could be honestly
life-changing.
