Cavalon. It's an adhesive film that you put on the skin before you put something sticky on there. I used to use this all the time doing pediatric IVs when it's some huge toddler with tons of sweaty fat. It'll make ice stick to Teflon!
Or, just make sure the skin is clean. A little rubbing alcohol at the site helps, too.
The first time I removed a sensor, wow did that hurt. After that wonderful experience, I tried this adhesive remover. Pretty sure this is mostly just rubbing alcohol.

You could also try using a barrier. It essentially adds a layer between the sensor tape and your skin and make removing the tape easier. There are a lot of similar products like this, you can get wipes or liquid.
