Probably the sun: Your problem is almost certainly sun-related; sun block is not all it's cracked up to be. A brimmed hat is much more effective. Other possibilities include a new face soap or cream, new laundry detergent or reaction to a medication. If it doesn't start fading in a few days, see a dermatologist.
