Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: CosmoProf Beauty at monthly against ProStylingTools's every 13 months. CosmoProf Beauty also leads on ratings volume (12K vs 176) and review sentiment (13% vs 0%). ProStylingTools's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ProStylingTools holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CosmoProf Beauty has 12K ratings behind it against 176, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of CosmoProf Beauty's written reviews are positive against 0% of ProStylingTools's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

CosmoProf Beauty ships an update monthly, ProStylingTools every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
