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.
