Using combination of drop shadow, inner shadow and inner glow filters in blending option can draw water droplet easily. Only useful in Photoshop, not so much in After Effect. As After Effects have better way to do this using Fractal Noise, CC Glass Filter for displacement

How to do this?
- Right click water droplet layer
- Select Blending Options
- Enable Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Inner Glow
- Play with the settings
- For specular, use another layer with Glow settings.
