(Benefit on top, maybelline on the bottom)
I'm a big benefit fan and when the new they're real push-up liner was released I knew I was going to buy it. I like the concept behind it, a gel liner in a tube with no brushes required. It has an accuflex? tip, which is just a rubbery and slightly flexible nib. You twist the product up from the bottom of the packaging and the product slowly emerges.

I read a few reviews before buying it and what a lot of people said is that it was really difficult to remove. Hence why benefit created a remover to go with it. But basically any oil based remover does the job.
I found that the liner was easy to use, I did have a little trouble trying to create a flick because the consistency is a little drying. It is however much quicker to use than a gel liner that you need to use a brush to apply. I believe I paid £18.50 for this.
I tried to put myself off of buying the benefit liner because I knew it wouldn't be long until another brand created one of their own. And whilst on my lunch break browsing through boots I saw maybelline lasting drama black shock gel liner for £8.99.
The first time using it I decided I much preferred it to benefits. It applies really smoothly and strong and I achieved a nice flick easily.
As for lasting power, both wear pretty well, I have swatched both on my hand and rubbed them both, benefit stayed better but it's not a problem for me because I just don't touch my face when I'm wearing make up! :) Which is better? You tell me!
