Brief Answer:
Photosensitive rash, topical steroid & antihistaminic

Detailed Answer:
I have reviewed the attached photographs and it seems to be photosensitive rash .
I would recommend you to continue with the sunscreen.
Also apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and antihistaminic like tablet chlorpheniramine maleate 4 mg once daily at bedtime for 8-10 days.
This should resolve the rash.
