Tim Holtz Distress® Ink Pads are Dye Ink Pads. These are water-reactive and specially formulated to stay wet longer to allow you to blend, shade, and create a vintage, stained, aged effect. Since the ink stays wet longer, you can use it for heat embossing. On the other hand, Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Pads are hybrid ink pads. They are a water-reactive dye and pigment ink fusion that creates an oxidized effect when sprayed with water.
