Basically what I learned in my modeling school is if you have light skin, eyes, and hair, wear brown, it looks less overpowering. If you have darker skin and hair (even if you have light eyes) you can get away with black. I have to wear brown because I'm pale with medium hair and I'm not goth. If you're going for a smokey eyes look, black looks nice.

If your eyes are dark you can probably wear black eyeliner anytime. If your eyes are brown, wear black eyeliner in the evening for a dramatic look. If you like the look of black eyeliner, yet feel it may be too dark, try applying black mascarer all from the base of your your lashes on out, (curl them first), and you'll get a nice effect without being too harsh. Brown eyeliner is nice in the daytime, especially if your hair is light. It gives off a softer look.

you should wear your brown eyeliner in the daytime. that way you do not look to dark around the eyes. and then you put the black on for evening occasions. like a dance or a party. especially if you have a lighter skin tone. hope i helped!

For almost everyone, brown eyeliner looks fabulous for the day look. And it transitions beautifully into the evening look with a black eyeliner! Hope this helps :)

I wear black everyday..
but I have really dark eyes and hair.
I was just recently reading online that everyone should wear black mascare(unless you have blond or red eyelashes)....maybe it's the same for eyeliner?
If your have light hair and eyes, I would say if brown looks okay use it in the daytime and use black in the night time.

I only wear Black eyeliner! I would never wear brown because my lashes and eyebrows are black and it would look strange.
I don't think that there's a right or wrong time to wear either of them. just wear what you like, and feel comfortable with.
Best Wishes
