I have never in my life wanted a mullet as badly as I did yesterday afternoon.
El Hub and I had a few minutes to kill before the start of a movie we went to see, Tell No One (two words — SEE IT!), so I cruised into a beauty store across the street from the theater.
The store’s inventory looked pretty standard at first, but then I spotted these:
- Sparkling Mullet Body Wash/Car Wash, $12, (“Strong enough to clean the car, yet gentle on the nards”)
- Vibrant Mullet Shampoo, $8 (“For a healthy, shiny mullet… new muscle car scent!”)
LOLOLZ!
They’re part of the … uh … Mullet line by Blue Q.
While I’d wager that one would not technically require a mullet to be able to use these “beauty” products, I imagine they would be *that* much cooler if one did. 🙂
Can’t get enough mullet? Earn your B.S. in mullet-ology at Mullets Galore, a site dedicated to the art of mullet classification in both urban and country settings. You’ll find plenty of mullet pictures to inspire your next trip to the salon.
Mullet line distributor Blue Q sells a wide range of bizarre bath and body products (along with magnets, car air fresheners and t-shirts) with fun, cheeky names and packaging.
They distribute several brands, including Miso Pretty, Dirty Girl and Cat Butts (Tabs’ favorite).
I’d like to try the Cute as Hell line. Check out the artwork on the packaging. It’s very Nightmare Before Christmas.
If you or someone you love wears a Mullet … check Blue Q’s store locator, or shop online, lol!
And don’t walk, but run to see Tell No One. It’s my favorite movie of the year so far. Despite the fact that it’s subtitled (it’s French), it was fantastic — the most exhilarating, thrilling mystery with lots of plot twists and turns. I loved the soundtrack, too, with music from Jeff Buckley and U2.
The movie begins with a terrifying bang! — the first 15 minutes were probably the most scared I’ve been while watching a film in a long time — and the story keeps you guessing from beginning to end. I’ve had a run in recently with several cheese-tacular flicks (uh, Step Up 2), and this movie totally restored my faith in the power of good storytelling.
Have a great day today. I’m about to run across the street for a Starbucks latte. Who’s coming with?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

I *adore* Blue Q. Cute as Hell lip gloss is quite nice. As is their Gnome lip gloss. The Queen bath line is amazing; champagne and strawberries (not at ALL like the VS products). Boss Lady is nice and light…and who doesn’t like Honeysuckle!?
Miso Pretty is also pretty fun…but that chapstick has a tendancy to be grainy. I don’t know if it was just a bad batch or what, but I won’t make that mistake for the third time!
La-La land orange and ginger soap and the chapstick smells lovely and the little deer reminds me from Deery-Loo (Sanrio) so of course, MUST HAVE.
And for the shock factor alone, Looking Good for Jesus is awesome. 😉
Karen says
Hi Misti,
I will have to try Boss Lady next, because I love the scent of Honeysuckle when it’s done well. 🙂
Have you used any of the Get Real Bare Naked body splashes? I love ’em just for the funny looking bear on the packaging.
Tania says
Karen-
Among my fear of mice and rats I also fear mullets. It’s the one hairstyle I will NEVER try in life and will NEVER like. However, I might try the mullet shampoo cuz that’s just funny. I have heard RAVE things about dirty girl body cleansing stuff. I want to try cute as hell cuz I love me some Nightmare Before Christmas. Did you see the VMA’s last night? All I have to say is I think that Russell Brand has a fire crotch! LOLZ!!!!
Karen says
Hi Tania,
Girl, do not fear The Mullet! The Mullet is your friend. You must become one with it… LOL.
I’m not really an award show person so I didn’t watch the VMAs, but I did watch The Hills before the show. Dude, I didn’t know Frankie was 27!
Dao says
LOL at Cat Butts! Did you get a pack of stickers for Tabs? Cute as Hell looks like that Cartoon Network show that has the Grim Reaper. And can someone send Billy Ray Cyrus a care package of the Mullet Line, stat? I know he doesn’t don the mullet anymore but for old time’s shake 😀

So cute!!! I would want them all..lol
**I have tagged you as a blog I love. Details are on my page. =)
Tammys last blog post..I love your blog!
Karen B says
That looks so cute!
I love French cinema. I’m considering studying drama in Paris. It’s just one of the possibilities though. I’m leaning more towards UK or France as both their theatre and movie industries are pretty impressive. With Belgium or the Netherlands I’m so bound to that Dutch…

I must get some of those Cat Butt stickers for DH! Explanation – we have 4 cats – they came with me (we’ve been married 4 years – I got custody of the 4 cats from evil ex) and I had to explain to him that it means they like you when they show you their butt! They love him – he’s got 4 cats backing up to him at once!
Brittany says
Oh my god. How randomly awesome 😛 haha
The Cute as Hell line looks, well, cute. I’d definitely try out their stuff!
Glosslizard says
LOL! I like the Cute as Hell line, but the Sparkling Mullet is one ugly tube to have in the shower!
Marisol says
Those are the cutest brands. I think I know what store you were in and let me tell you, I can spend an hour plus looking at the products they have.
I will have to see if they have that movie in my area. Looks interesting.
Are you knocking Step Up 2 the Streets? For some strange reason, I really liked it.

LOL, back in the olden days when I worked at tower records, we sold some of the blue q stuff. it was always fun to watch people’s amusement when they stumbled across the display 🙂
lexi says

lindsay says
Everytime I hear the word “mullet” I think of Billy Ray Cyrus 😛 I heard of La-La Land before, SO CUTE!
Hope you had a good Monday, I’m so looking foward to Prison Break tonight! Do you watch it?
Karen says
Hi Dao,
I should probably get him some magnets, huh? He practically lives at my house, so he should get a lil’ space on the fridge for his pics and notes. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Tammy,
Thanks! I’ll check it out!
Karen says
Hi Karen B,
I didn’t know you wanted to get involved with film. What would your dream job be?
Karen says
Hi Bisbee,
LOL! No wonder Tabs is always showing me his stuff (all this time I thought he was just a pervert).
That’s really cute that your kitties all back up on him at once. What do they look like and what are their names?
Karen says
Hi Brittany,
I know! It’s so weird, but I dig it.
Karen says
Hi Glosslizard,
Right? Would you like that guy staring at you in the shower while you were shampooing? LOLOL
Karen says
Hi Marisol,
One of these days I swear we’re destined to run into each other, LOL!
I *loved* the first Step Up, so I had high hopes for the sequel. I didn’t like it at all! I appreciated Channing Tatum’s cameo in the beginning and that’s about it.
Karen says
Hi Tiffany,
Ha! Did you guys have the Mullet line?
Karen says
Hi Lexi,
You gotta keep a part of her alive, always!
Karen says
Hi Lindsay,
I am watching The Sarah Conner Chronicles right now! For some reason I never got into Prison Break…
Glosslizard says
*shudders*
😀
Karen B says
To act. I’m not sure if I’d want to go into movies or theatre, I’d like to keep my options open.
