There are a number of ways a fair skinned person appears to have red skin.

Either as a result of over exposure to sunlight, in which case this causes burn damage which is indicated by red skin.

It may be a psychological reaction to an emotion such as embarrassment. Noone knows why this happens.

Being hot can also shows the skin as red due to the blood vessels near the skin surface being visible. the blood is used to carry away heat from the core and transfer it to the outer layers of the skin to increase cooling.
