Mai,
I like how you handled the back away space in this, but since there is nothing in the background of the "real" person, i.e., the furniture or objects behind her, I am having a hard time seeing what is reflection and what is not, maybe that was your intention.
I looked three times and realized you did have duplicates on the vanity counter but I think they need to be separated in some way to make it more obivious. Would the reflected items show light in a different way? Wouldn't the mirror be lighter, or have some glare somewhere? How about some water spots? (Oops, that sounds like my house).
I am assuming your light source is coming on your model from behind her right shoulder/back. My eye is drawn to the dark edge of her left shoulder, maybe gradate that some more; the light on the back in the reflection is wonderful.
I cannot tell what the blue thing is in the foreground, but value-wise it is becoming part of the reflected lady. Is it a hat or sink area? Perhaps show the top of the lipstick laying on the counter behind one of the items, bottle or box, so it wouldn't show up in the reflection; that could create some seperation too.
I like the hair and love the shadow on the chest of the reflection from her arm. Wow, this was a tricky one to take on!
I can't see where you could crop it differently. Don't give up, this one isn't ready for the garage sale!
