Now the effect look good enough. But we need to adjust some basic adjustments like brightness and contrast.
Go to adjustments, add & modify contrast and brightness to your liking.
Add clipping mask to make changes to the bottom layer only (wet glass).
Finally add color tone to the image using color lookup adjustment.
Select any one from list to your liking.
I want to give some cool blue tint to the glass, so add another color lookup.
Select crisp winter preset. Lower the opacity to your preference.
Optional: If you want to minimize the effect, simply lower the we glass layer opacity.
That’s it. We’re Done.
