Use soapy water and keep glue wet for sometime and then do a gentle rub.

I use a moisturiser to remove the Libre and the residue.

I only found out there was still glue left after 2 years of using the Libre as I never see the back of my arms. It hadn't bothered me in the previous years so I still don't remove it. But I'm funny like that.

I use an alcohol based hand sanitizers, it was something I leant when using stat-locks which insist they must be removed with alcohol bassed adhesive remover.
