Jessica Alba says acting is like a "vacation".

The 33-year-old, who has daughters Honor, six, and three-year-old Haven with husband Cash Warren, insists working on a movie is a much more "easy" job than her day-to-day dealings with her eco-friendly brand The Honest Company, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

`Acting is totally the easy job. It's like vacation! It's also something I have been doing for so long,` ELLE magazine quoted Alba as saying.

`It's difficult because you have to be open and vulnerable and in the moment. It's hard for me to be in a mental state to do all of that sometimes, but it's much more the creative side of the brain.

"That's tough for a lot of people and it's tough for me... My day-to-day stress is running my business and knowing I am part of a bigger movement with my company,` she added.

The 33-year-old actress feels a lot more "pressure" in her business, but she is willing to work hard at it to make her family proud.

`We have a lot of employees who rely on us and lots of customers to deliver this quality product to. I do feel that pressure and I also want my kids and husband and family to be proud of me. It's a completely different business," she said.
