I use a V-Go insulin pump and it sticks to me using adhesive, but I can't get the adhesive residue off my skin which is making my skin extremely irritated and itchy. I have tried the normal alcohol and finger nail polish remover. All of which burn or irritate more. I want to try and stay away from harsh chemicals. Thanks.

Try an ice cube to freeze it, and then pick it off gently. Don't leave the ice on too long.
Try rubbing coconut oil over it then putting a warm compress on it for several minutes.
I would try coconut oil, olive oil or even hand cream.
What about ice? Just leave it on a second or so
A thin layer of old fashioned vaseline may help. Let it sit for a few minutes then apply a warm wash cloth and gently try to remove the residue. Cover the skin that had the residue with Neosporin if you have redness of the skin after the adhesive is removed.
