- Finish: Distress Oxide inks have a creamier finish, similar to chalk, while Distress Inks are more liquid in color.
- Blending: Distress Oxide inks are made for blending and smudging, while Distress Inks can be more difficult to blend and may streak.
- Drying time: Distress Inks dry faster than Distress Oxide inks.
- Texture: Distress Oxide inks are thicker than Distress Inks.
- Uses: Both Distress Inks and Distress Oxide inks can be used for watercoloring and embossing.
