Ballpoint Pen on Skin

My daughter wrote all over herself with a ballpoint pen and I don't know what to use to get it off. Please help.

Use rubbing alcohol to remove ink from skin. It will remove permanent ink also, if not on skin too
long. (04/22/2006)

I have found that "Lestoil" is good for removing "oil based" products-including ballpoint pen marks. (04/22/2006)

Hairspray will take it off clothes so I imagine it would do the same thing on her skin. (04/22/2006)

Regular ballpoint is easily and gently removed with baby wipes. My 2 year old is a Picasso and her arms and legs are her favorite "canvas".

Good luck.

Regular soap and water with a scrub brush will work fine. I write on my hand all the time for notes to myself.

My stepson did this at a friend's house with a permanent ink and faux tattoos all over. Baby wipes and hand

lotion worked fine, of course I was in a panic thinking it was permanent. (04/24/2006)

You can use Avon's Skin So Soft and it smells nice, too. (04/25/2006)
