• 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.
