Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MySkin Data at none against Skincare Routine's 6. MySkin Data also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 81%). Skincare Routine's advantage is ratings volume (598 vs 3). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

MySkin Data holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
