She talks about how Coconut Oil compares to Aloe Vera and when it can make things better, as well as worse.  For instance you would not want to use it if you had just gotten a sunburn.

“This is because applying any oil over a fresh sunburn will trap the heat on the surface of your skin,” Dr. Green explains. “This can worsen the burn, increase inflammation, and keep your skin hot and red making the healing process take longer.”
