a makeup expert told me to use the opposite color of my eyes...i have light brown eyes so what would be the best color to use that is the opposite so it would bring out my eye color...lets say perhaps for an evening event.... or a daytime date with my bf

blues make your eyes look smaller.. dont use that... i agree with the first answer... purples are really great.... the microviolet fluid liner is great... i wear it all the time... and the dark purple makes a great smokey effect and it brings the brown out... use gray colors... the brown is always nice... light greens... pinks (light).... the purple is great tho... i have brown eyes and ive tried jsut about every color.. the purple gives you lots of compliments... i got the most when i wore purple and alot of people didnt like the blue... just blend in correctly... and you will look great..

Got me thinking on that one! There really is no opposite of brown, since mixing two opposite colors MAKES brown. ;-)
You can really wear just about anything. Take into consideration your hair color and what colors are dominant in your wardrobe. Often a soft look, like grey and peach shows off brown eyes (great for daytime). A nice night look might be a navy or midnight blue and beige. I love the purple ideas, but it may be a bit too retro.

I have dark brown eyes and I'm told to use purples, Mac's fluidline Macroviolet is awesome to bring out the eye colour.

For brown eyes, use blue eyeliner and blue shadow to make the brown really pop. Check out almay's color sets for your eye color

I'd try a navy color, I also have light brown eyes and blues always make them stand out!

Plums and violets usually look great with brown eyes.

I love to use purple! It also looks really good with a charcoal gray liner.
