Yes.
Some people say it will eventually cause cancer because of what the toxic chemicals in it do to your skin.
But the one reason that makes most sense is that it's not good for your skin, and something *WILL* happen to it eventually.
Try to see if it tells you what chemicals are contained in it... Might not be very comforting.
If you enjoy writing or drawing on your skin you might want to think about special markers that are safe for applying on skin.
ANSWER:It's tough to say. There have not been many studies on long term exposure to pen or marker ink to prove or disprove that there may be a health issue. However keep in mind that just because there is no definitive answer, that's not to say that it's a healthy habit. Many types of pen and markers contain a solvent called xylene which increases the risk of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.You can read an article about the connection by clicking on the related link below.
Also many chemicals and heavy metals can; over exposure and time, accumulate in the body, where down the road they will begin to tax the immune system and open the door for a whole avalanche of other health issues (which of course the doctors will undoubtedly blame on something else ).
Best to play on the safe side and not do it :)
Yes, it puts bad chemicals into your skin, but really don't think it hurts you THAT much. Unfortunately, most people on the web are, wrong about this whole sharpie on skin thing. Your sharpie says is non-toxic. Correct, one point. But, what is it non toxic for.
Well, it's non toxic for is intended use,silly willy. The intended use being writing on hardhats, windows, cardboard boxes, and other such things.
The ASTM standard that sharpies conform to is for writing on things in a well ventilated area. Ie: it looks at the inhalation risk only. Sharpies contain all kind of fun and deadly industrial solvents it can easily soak into your blood stream through your skin. Awesome!
These chemicals, once coursing through your veins can cause liver damage, kidney damage, BRAIN damage, and birth defects.
The manufactures know this, and they only claim to conform to ASTM standard D-2436. Take a look, it's right on your pen. If it's non, uh-oh, you might have a toxic pen.
Try reading this standard, and decide for your self.
Yes, it is save to draw on your skin with a sharpie. The ink contains no harmful ingredients, however it does contain acetone, which is an irritant. Should be okay so long as you don't draw all over your body!
Not really If you did it with sharpy then yes

Nope. People do it all the time! It's art and helps you to remember things. It's no worse than tattoos, is it? Trust me: you won't get skin cancer.
Yes, if you write too much on your skin with a pen then you could get skin poisoning
