I like using it as an inner corner highlight with a 239 brush.
It also looks great when I pack it on the lid and blend it with warm tone browns and winged liner for a pin up style look.
Sometimes it can look a little garish as a highlighter but if you want to tone down a frostier color, dab some of it into Gesso with a less dense brush like 224 or 217.

I agree. It is a very sheer matte, but I was surprised when I swatched it against all my other MAC whites that it has noticeable blue undertone; which is why it looks good particularly as a wash with lavender's/purple's & why it brightens the eyes if placed in the inner corner.
