This set was released in 2014 under the BeForever branding and retired in 2016.
Includes: A faux-silver brush modeled on real antique brushes from the early 1900s, A pretty pink-and-white striped bow, A boater hat with a pretty rosette
I bought Samantha's Hairstyling Set with the Project Runway Free Shipping code and it is very cute! I have a video and some pictures. The set retails for $24.
I took pictures of the front, back, and out of the package.
The ribbon is really cute and the hair tie attached will make it easier for little hands to put on even if I personally miss the big ribbons you can tie in her hair. The pink color is a bit paler than I thought, almost peach. One of the reasons I bought this was for the ribbon and the brush, especially the Birthday Dress, but I don't know how well it will work. The elastic is looped through the ribbon so if you don't like it I don't think it would be too hard to add a small hair barrette.
As for the brush, it is plastic with silver plating. I do not have the Travel Outfit or Bridesmaid Accessories so I can't say if this is the same brush. It is still cute and works for play value but isn't really functional.
The hat is probably one of the cutest things of the set. It has a ribbon on the brim that is the same ribbon as the hair ribbon with a rose accent. It has an elastic band to keep the hat from falling off, unlike the hat for her Classic Meet Accessories which did not. Since the hat is for outside I'm not as iffy about the ribbon matching her outfits.
Overall, the set is really cute and not bad for the price. I thought at first that maybe it was overpriced because you only get three things, but I am satisfied that it is worth the money. There is potential with this set.
