Can Formula Cause Diaper Rash for a Breastfed Baby?

I've never had much luck with pumping, so I turned to formula to supplement.

Acne/Rash From Soy Formula?

I've had to supplement with formula as I'm not producing enough at the moment. I gave my daughter a soy formula (earth's best brand) one night. My husband used a lactose-free (similac) the following day. A few days later I noticed a small breakout of baby acne - almost rashlike on her upper chest and some on the crook of one elbow. I'm not sure if it's related to the formula, or maybe something she came into contact with. Has anybody ever seen this before?
