I steamed my face two days ago for 7 minutes, with a pot and hot water. 2 minutes later, I then washed my face with lukewarm water and finished off with splashes of cold wate, I applied a light moisturiser. I woke up next morning with more clogged pores and and rash like pimples... Is it normal for this to happen?

It could mean that hot water causes your acne. So try not to wash and shave with hot water or steam on your face for at least 2 weeks and see if you have any success with this strategy. It worked for me. :)

It's highly recommended that when you steam your face you wash first and not after you open the pores. Instead of applying a spot treatment to the opened pores, you spread the bacteria around with warm water. Also the specific moisturizer you used could have adverse effects when applied to steamed skin.
