Take a new layer and rename it as “Drop Water”

Select “elliptical marquee tool” and draw a round shape selection.

CTR+Z or CMD+Z if you messed up.

To do that press shift+left to drag and draw.

Now select “Gradient Tool” and choose this “Black and White” mode.

Press Shift+Drag down to do just this.

Change the blend mode to “Overlay”.

Double click here to open the “Layer Style” and hit “inner shadow”

Just follow my every step so that you end up like this.

After completing “inner shadow” select “drop shadow”

And make the things just like me.

Now we need a light effect on this drop. So that it looks real.

CTRL+G or CMD+G. rename it as “Drop 01”.

CTRL+J or CMD+J for a copy this whole group and rename as “drop 02 and 03”

Now select the move tool. Make sure the auto-select tool is deselected.

Select “drop 03” and move to another side.

The same goes to “drop 02” also.
