I had the brush liner before and got really frustrated. The brush liner clogged up a lot and had bad pigmentation. This is much better. When I first got it it bled a lot, but after a few uses it dried up a little and now it stays in place. I'm a little worried that it'll dry out with time. I added in a picture of the brush liner swatch on the left side. This is actually waterproof but will fade a little if you're out all day. Easily removable with makeup remover.
