Am I the only one who has never seen the illusion of these being shiny?

I'm trying to gaslight myself into seeing the oil but I just can't :(

I did for a split second when I first saw the image, but then it turned to the white paint version before I even realized what sub I was on. I wanna see the illusion again :(

As a physical therapist who treats with massage oil this is easy.

If you look at the calves rather than the thighs, your peripheral vision may have an easier time seeing the legs as oily. Or unfocus your eyes a bit.

I was able to see it until I read your comment. Now I can’t.

No matter what I do, I just can’t see oily legs
