Jojoba oil is a natural product that many alternative-medicine product manufacturers claim can alleviate or even prevent some of these problems.

Of course we were all there, with camera, and video camera, holding onto every word, every song with bated breath. And oh we were proud. The kids were over the top. Incredible.
