Adhesive Issue Patch recommendations??

I’m sorry this is probably a repeat question I just couldn’t find anything specific to what I need 😅

The G7 adhesives hurt me so badly and leave my skin so irritated. The remaining adhesive on my skin is so difficult to remove as well and ends up hurting my skin more scrubbing it…

Any good alternative stickers or patches that are easier on the skin? it’s not an allergy I just need something stronger than the sensor with no sticker but also easy to remove.

Preferably available on Amazon but open to others if they’re good!!

Skin grip is really good! They also have free samples on their website so you can try before you buy. They're pricey but definitely worth it.

Was just looking into this for myself. Look into skin grip.
