Can anyone tell me what I can use as an adhesive remover, like a home remedy? Please help!

Have you tried a naked shower? That and Dial soap should do the trick. Or your favorite moisturizer-less soap.

Hi all,
Things like vegetable oil, mineral oil, canola oil, baby oil, coconut oil, and vitamin E oil are safe ways to remove adhesives, and things like rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover are a bit more aggressive... but only use those if your skin isn't broken. Just make sure to clean your skin with mild soap afterward to get off the residue from these things... or you'll have problems with adhesion of anything new.

Hi. Is medical adhesive remover spray not available in the States? It's cheap and easily available in the UK. Check out Salts Healthcare.

I order Hollister adhesive remover spray from Medical Monks (in the US) - my insurance doesn't cover it. It's not expensive and works so well! It saved my skin.
