Your magic is very sketchy...
When I'm put under pressure what was inside comes out
The lower I fall the darker my snout
I own a magic hat that makes things disappear
As I shed my skin, abracadabra I reappear
What am I?

Seems like you are:
A pencil
Because,
When I'm put under pressure my insides fall out
The graphite in the centre (insides) rubs off (falls out) on the page when you use pressure.
The lower I fall the darker my snout
Not 100% sure about this one, but graphite is dark in colour and can smudge around the end of the pencil as you use it more (i.e. as the pencil gets shorter/lower).
I own a magic hat that makes things disappear
Often pencils have an eraser on the end.
As I shed my skin, abracadabra I reappear
Sharpening the pencil makes the graphite reappear.
And from the title:
You use pencils to sketch pictures.

Are you a :
volcano ?
Because,
When I'm put under pressure my insides fall out
Volcanos erupt lava when the pressure increases
The lower I fall the darker my snout
The deeper the lava, the blacker the surrounding rocks of inactive volcanos.
I own a magic hat that makes things disappear
Throw anything inside a volcano and its literally gone :D
As I shed my skin, abracadabra I reappear
Lava keeps accumulating a black solid layer that is lost again and again
And from the title:
The magic is sketchy since things that disappear by lava can't be brought back.

3I'm guessing that @Alconja has the correct answer, but +1 for an excellently justified answer! – Brandon_J Mar 26 '19 at 14:22
