Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the image.

I have reviewed it fully. However, this could represent an irritation/allergy or an infection. To make the difference, it would be necessary to establish how long this has been as infections would most likely be acute than chronic. For how long has this been there? Has there be any change in your cosmetics products? are you having any problem with the upper eyelid of the right eye? It seems to present a similar nature like the spot you are referring to. If this is true, then something you apply on the face may be the likely cause. Well, let me hear first from you.

Thanks

Brief Answer:
For now, monitor only!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

This is recent and really not typical of a specific disease condition. I strongly believe this will regress spontaneously and doesn't really need any specific medical unless this fails to regress within 7-10days significantly. The beach and new sunscreen lotion might be possible contributing factors.

Keep me posted. I wish you well.
