Hi, I Recently Tried A Retinol Face Cream, I Used

Hi, I recently tried a retinol face cream, I used it once every 2nd or 3rd day about 3-4 times but my skin got sensitive & sore so I stopped. That was a month ago. At the same time I switched to a gentle, mostly natural moisturiser for sensitive skin which I'm still using (had been using a different brand, natural moisturiser). Now my problem is for the last week after I shower I get red patches on the sides of my face from temples down to jaw, it doesn't happen when I wash my face not in the shower and I've lowered the shower temperature bit it still happens. Any idea on what is causing this? Those face creams are the only things I've changed. Thanks
