I've tiled two bathrooms and would not sand the tile. If you really
need the mirror to shave, I second the comment about using E6000 to glue
it on. I shave in the shower too and have two little plastic hooks
where I hang the razor. One of them fell off several years ago, so I
just used a little E6000 and it has been fine since.
In my case, I don't bother with a mirror. You can feel any areas you
miss, so just hit them again. I don't even bother with shaving cream.
I just use lather my face with shampoo while washing my hair.
The other option is to hang the mirror from the wall above the tile or
from the ceiling. Get a flange like

then make yourself a piece of art with copper or PVC pipe. PVC pipe
bend pretty nicely if you heat it evenly with a heat gun.
