1- Open a new transparent image of 800 by 650 pixels
2- Set your material palette with two colours out of your main tube
My choice : Foreground : light colour d7fbff 
Background : dark colour 444d6b 
Set your foreground with a linear gradient , angle and repeats at 0, invert NOT checked
3- Flood fill your transparent layer with that gradient
4- Effects / textures effects / blinds as below :

5- Effects / Illumination effects / Sunburst as below :
Choose a bright colour to match your other colours !

6- Add a new raster layer and select all
7- Open the tube hmo_terrasse2 or a tube of your choice, copy it and paste it into the selection
Select none
8- I have set the mode of that layer on to Multiply and I have lowered its opacity at 73
It's up to you to see which mode and which opacity suit your tag better depending on your choice of tube and colours !
9- Add a new raster layer
Selections / load from disk / Fairymist_miroir_selection / check Source Luminance and Remplace the selection

or a pale colour of your choice

Repeat that step several times !
16- I have set the mode of that layer on to Hard Light and lowered its opacity at 65
But you might prefer the mode Luminance heritage that makes your mirror look more luminous
You'll have to do a few tries to decide what you prefer but I suppose it's be easier for you to decide and change again once you have the reflect of the woman on your mirror !!
17- Open the tube Kikirou1063_girl or a tube of your choice, copy it and paste it into the selection
