Could it be sun sensitivity or exposure since the skin there is so thin and delicate?  Might you have used a cream or makeup causing a reaction?  Are dry and humid days in the summer causing a skin reaction? 
Are you swimming in chlorinated pools?  these are some of the issues i might look at and then if the skin problem does not clear up on its own, I would see a dermatologist.
