Eek.. Rash that seems to be spreading

Have had a rash on one hand for about a week thats been itchy on and off

Then this morning it spread to the other hand, which came up in a stinging nettle like rash that got extremely itchy, but faded after an hour or so into a mottled rash that isn't raised or itchy anymore.

Housemate has just noticied the rash on my upper arm/chest, that is starting to look like the nettle rash, but as of yet, is not itchy.

Haven't changed my washing powder or soap in the last few weeks.. only thing new is the brand of washing up liquid, but I can't remember if this started before or after we switched. Am only one effected. Any Ideas? Could it be a stress rash?

Just updating to say the rash appeared to be caused by a buildup of stress because after breaking down twice (long story) the rash faded.
