Dear mountida,
Thanks for the details and the photos.
I went through your photos and description provided by you, it does not look like allergic or contact dermatitis. It could be periporitis or milliaria due to heat.
You can follow these measures:
1. Apply a cool soothing lotion like calamine or aloe vera lotion.
2. Maintain sun protection, if possible cool environment.
3. Do not use any cosmetic or other products.
Rash should go away in seven days.
Hope this answers your query.
Take care.
