Jessica Alba and Reese Witherspoon don't just have one thing in common. Aside from being one of the most-sought after actresses, they aren't just pretty faces but women who mean serious business. Alba and Witherspoon are both entrepreneurs. In fact, just recently, they have traded some secrets of their businesses. Meanwhile, Alba defends her Honest Company's sunscreen which received some complaints for being defective.
Just recently, Reese Witherspoon and Jessica Alba showed their support on both their ventures. Witherspoon posted on her Instagram a picture of her and Jessica Alba while on a visit to the headquarters of the latter's The Honest Company last Friday. She said she spent a day learning tips from Alba who is into making safe and chemical-free household and personal items. Witherspoon says she is converting her whole house to Honest products.
Jessica Alba on the other hand also posted a picture of them saying she also has learned a lot about things Southern from the Southern girl Witherspoon who also owns Draper James.
Witherspoon just launched Draper James, a lifestyle brand, last May. According to Daily Mail, the clothing, accessories and home décor business was named after her grandparents' Dorothea Draper and William James. Witherspoon once emphasized that the South has a long history in making denim. They aim to produce the clothes in the U.S.
Meanwhile, Alba has founded The Good Company since 2011 together with three others with the goal of making products that would meet the needs of a modern person. However, recently, it also received criticism when some of its customers complained about their sunscreen product which allegedly was not serving its purpose. Alba has already released a statement regarding this saying that the product has gone through a series of testing and she even uses it for her kids.
Problems may have arisen from their respective businesses but Jessica Alba and Reese Witherspoon may have surely learned a thing or two from each other.
