Why is liquid paraffin bad for the skin?

My oldest DD has suffered from excema most of her life. Now she works part time in catering and it appears she has some sort of allergy to the chemicals they use to clean the counters. She has been on prescription creams several times. I did a bit of research and found this very easy recipe for a home made excema cream. It cleared up her skin on her hands completely in about 4-5 days. I bought the coconut oil inexpensively from a chinese food shop. I used lavender oil instead of rosemary as I had it on hand and had previously read it has healing properties. I'm posting the link here for anyone that likes making their own stuff but do make sure each of the ingredients are safe for you.
