: I am looking for ideas on how to improve my painted eyes to make them extremely glossy/moist/reflective looking. I can get the white highlights pretty good and detail, but they still seem to lack the moist look that I want to get. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

You may have a more glistening look if you make the eye a little darker overall for more contrast with the highlight. You may also wish to add a bit of the compliment to the color you are highlighting into the white. So, if you put the highlight on a blue eye, for instance, try mixing in a hint of orange.
