Adding reflection or shine to a sphere

[date12]

How can I add reflection or shine to a sphere-shaped object?

Here is an example of what I'm looking for https://pixabay.com/vectors/ladybug-insect-nature-beetle-46732/.

For example, apply some shape with a white gradient on top, which flows in some direction (linear, elliptical ... etc.) with different setup gradient  anchor point transparancy values ...

(NOTE that there are also other possible ways, instead of applying a common gradient flow, too here, as for example via some FX effects and/or playing around with half transparent shapes/curves placed on top of objects etc.)
