The warmth causes your vessels to vaso-dilate (seen with the pinking of your skin) which causes your blood pressure to drop (less blood in the vascular system). Your pressure is regulated by a combination of heart rate and forcefulness of contraction along with vascular tone - regulated by Starling's Law. (Cardiac output = stroke volume x rate) When vascular tone goes down, then heart rate goes up to compensate.

Normally NO. It seems you are poring water on your face and suffacate. That should be the reason for increase in heart rate.

Other wise only on cold water it should increase to keep the body temperature in normal condition.
