face burns after swim

When I swim for a hour or more, my face starts to burn about 10-15 min after I get out and keeps burning for about an half hour. It feels hot to the touch, like a moderate sunburn. The rest of my skin gets a bit red but my face down right hurts. I tried face wash which didn't help and lotion which made it worse. Anyone else have this problem? Ideas to fix it? thanks

    I used to get this all the time, and I finally figured out that it had to do with the lotion I used before I swam. I also get it more often when I do dryland (sweat) before swimming, but I learned that if I just rinse my face with water after dryland and before entering the pool, it helped a lot. Good luck!
