5 Secrets to Jessica Alba's Fit Physique with Stunning Vacation Photos

Jessica Alba is not only a successful actress but also a thriving entrepreneur. She first gained recognition on the fantasy TV series Dark Angel and has since starred in blockbuster movies like Fantastic Four, Honey, Good Luck Chuck, and Sin City. In addition to her acting career, she founded the Honest Company, a consumer goods brand that emphasizes natural and eco-friendly products. Currently, Alba is enjoying a vacation in Mykonos and shared some stunning highlights on Instagram, captioning the post, “& now some island time with the whole fam 💙🌅🌊👙🧿☀️” Curious about how she stays so fit? Read on to discover five ways Jessica Alba maintains her incredible shape, along with photos that prove her methods work.

1. She Uses A Facial Mask

Alba has amazing skin, and she shared her favorite products in an interview with Molly Sims’ website. She says that she likes to use a mask in the mornings. “The very first thing I do when I wake up is wash my face with Honest Beauty Calm On Foaming Cream Cleanser and follow that up with my favorite Prime +Perfect Mask. I always reach for this mask because it’s full of superfruit antioxidants, shea butter to moisturize, and vitamin E to nourish. Without fail, it leaves my skin feeling tighter and makes my pores look smaller–I literally can’t start my morning without it! I like to think of it as my version of a morning smoothie for my skin.”

2. She Keeps Her Skin Hydrated

Alba tells Molly Sims that she makes sure to keep her skin hydrated. “I’ll either use the Vitamin C Radiance Serum or the Calm & POREfect Serum. I let that sit on my skin for about 30 seconds and follow that up with either Hydrogel Cream or our new Calm and Heal Melting Balm. Especially in the winter months, I can get super dry skin, which the Calm and Heal Melting Balm is perfect for. I have been working with our Honest Company chemists for years to develop a CLEAN alternative to those super expensive creams on the market. It’s so luxurious, it literally melts in your skin leaving it looking like a dewy dumpling…I’m obsessed. I ALWAYS follow that up with Honestly Bright Eyes under my eyes. It’s a water-based eye cream that corrects blue undertones. My last step – add Gloss C – it’s a lip treatment and gloss in one.

3. She Takes Fitness Classes

Alba shared some of her fitness secrets with Shape. She says that she likes to take fitness classes. “I’m not going to lie. Working out sucks. Which is why I love taking classes, because I’m surrounded by other people and that keeps me motivated and accountable. I've figured out now certain things that I like to do and it's actually become kind of a stress reliever.”

4. She Feels Powerful

Alba talked about finding power in her femininity with The Cut. “Before becoming a mom, my femininity was defined by society’s standards of what it means to be desirable to men. Now I understand what feeling powerful from a woman’s point of view means. It has nothing to do with whether someone desires you, it’s more about how connected you feel to yourself. You end up attracting people when you’re confident and you feel good in your skin. And that’s a by-product of being connected to your feminine energy.”

5. She Rides A Stationary Bike

Alba likes to ride a stationary bike to stay in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing a Peloton class. Alba captioned it, “It’s a new week 📆 let’s get it off to a strong start 💪🏽🚲#mantramonday: you can and you will. because you’re bad a** like that 👊🏽 & with this week comes new strength and new thoughts ✨ #motivationmonday #letsgetit.” Alba is also seen on a bike in this Instagram video.
