Actress Jessica Alba says it’s rewarding to know that her business helps people to live “safer” and “healthier” lives.

The “Sin City: A Dame to Kill For” actress has her own eco-friendly business, The Honest Company, which she founded in 2011 and is now worth over $1 billion. And though she enjoys inspiring her fans with her movie roles, she is particularly pleased with the work done by her company.

“Knowing that I’ve reached people with any of my roles is a good feeling,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted Alba as saying.

“I’ve gone from entertaining them to helping them live safer, healthier lives through a business that provides education, community and product. I’ve worked hard to achieve what I have, so it feels great to see results.

“Of course, there’s always more to do, so the transformation is ongoing,” she added.
