Actress Jessica Alba says she did not always make the right choices in her acting career.
The 'Sin City' star, who has launched her own eco-friendly lifestyle company, said she often struggled when deciding which roles to accept, reported Contactmusic.
"Honest Company has weirdly allowed me to be more creative in my roles, and really work with people I love and appreciate and want to learn from. This is where my work is now.
"For me, acting was a lot about making the right choices and trusting my instincts. I didn't always listen to my gut and make the right choice," she said.
The 31-year-old beauty, who has daughters Honor, four, and 20-month-old Haven with husband Cash Warren, launched the Honest Company, which specialises in organically-produced nappies, baby wipes and bath products.
"It's really hard to find baby products that use non-toxic chemicals that mums can trust. Major corporate brands that label their products 'eco-friendly' or 'non-toxic' are usually referring to the way they make their packaging, not their product," she added.
