Step 1 Add a new frame, turn on clip content and round those corners!

Step 2 Add 2 inner black shadows, one with an offset from the left and the other with an offset from the right. Make sure the opacity is at 100%, and the shadow on the left has some more blur.

Step 3 Change the fill of your frame to a (really) dark grey and add your first highlight with the pen tool as shown below.

Step 4 Looking good! Let's add a second one and make sure to decrease the opacity. Tip: use a linear gradient as a fill, so you can fade out the top and bottom.

Step 5 Now it's time to add some smaller highlights with the pen tool. Add one or 2 in every corner except the top left one to achieve an effect like below.

Step 6 Almost there! Give all your highlights a subtle layer blur and add your logo.

Step 7 Change the fill of your logo to a linear gradient to make it blend in nicely.

Step 8 Lastly, Use the plugin "Beautiful Shadows" as a finishing touch! ✨
