Critical reception
Justino M. Dormiendo, writing for Sagisag, gave Babae... Sa Likod ng Salamin a negative review. Having expressed high expectations for a film made by Cesar J. Amigo, a multiple FAMAS Award winner, and Reuben Canoy with the involvement of a talented cast, he expressed disappointment in the overall quality of the film, stating that "this has no difference from the numerous sex dramas being sold in the market. In reality, the story is not credible."
