Headlight is leaking

My one painted headlight fogged up a little bit yesterday. As I drove with the headlights on most of it went away. Then this morning there was no fog at all. Do you think I should try to add some sealant on the headlights or just leave it. I'm thinking it could be from the weather.

I had the same trouble, not after painting, but after I unsealed the lamp housing while changing to silverstars in high humidity. They fogged up almost immediately. I had purchased some silicone sealant anticipating that I would need it after my headlight mod. I didn't think I needed it right away, but after a few days of fog in my headlights, I put them back in the oven to dry them out and sealed it up with the sealant. I haven't had any trouble since.
