Lift up the corners of the sensor over tape and then use an adhesive remover spray like LiftPlus or similar and allow the remover spray liquid to take off the over tape and then use the spray to remove the sensor patch. Afterwards, just use an alcohol swab to remove any residue from the surface of the skin.
Some people use nail polish remover and some use babyoil. I always use LiftPlus myself so get a free sample and see what you think.
