The body has a core temperature of about 98.6F for most people. If you are in a hot environment, or have just taken a nice hot shower/bath, your core body temp is going to be affected. To get rid of the heat, the superficial blood vessels, just under your skin, dilate to release the heat to the skin, sometimes in the form of perspiration with a little help from the eccrine (sweat) glands. When those blood vessels dilate so close to the surface of the skin, it causes the skin to become red, flushed or florrid.

Is the water too hot? When we wash ourselves in water that is too hot we appear to have a patchy red rash. If this is not the case then you could be allergic to something you are using in the shower. Change your products to see if it gets better. If it doesn't go and talk to your doctor about an allergy test.
