The end is nigh. Bring my mascara......

After watching The Walking Dead last night it got me thinking as to what I would save if I had to flee across the country. Those essential things I couldn't possibly live without should a zombie apocolypse commence suddenly. Quite a tough decision considering the volume of essentials the modern day woman has in her ownership.

Obviously my closest family would be the first people I'd check on and encourage to join me. Parents, brother, brothers girlfriend and my soon-to-be niece. I'd like to say cousins too but quite frankly, I have too many. They will have to save themselves and meet up with us a safe and convinient time (I've thought about this long and hard as you can probably tell). Mr Z is a definite essential on my "To Save" list, not just because he's my man, but also due to the fact he's probably seen every zombie movie and every zombie TV programme ever created so therefore would have more than a few survival tips up his sleeve. I'm confident that if this apocolypse should ever happen, Mr Z would probably be the last surviving human being - possibly along with Emma's fella "The Mexican", as he is equally enthused with zombies.

So after the close family and boyfriend (I would attempt the best friends but they'd probably be too busy saving their own. I'd like to think that with the Mexican guiding Em and her family, they'd survive long enough to meet up with us at a safe location at some point), my thoughts turn to beauty essentials. Obvs. Initially I thought, whoa...must save the straighteners, then I realised the worlds power supply would probably be down so it'd be fruitless trying to salvage my kinky tresses. So to compensate for the fact that I will have permanently shit hair during this apocolypse, I realised the most important thing to save would be my make-up bag. With make up in it of course. My make up essentials will become vitally essential! I know it may seem a bit silly to be worrying about something so "trivial" as looking pretty - whilst my neighbours and friends are trying to rip out my internal organs and eat my brains, but the whole world going to pot is no excuse for neglecting your beauty routine. Fact.

Whilst I'm on the subject of beauty essentials, I would have to ensure that I have cold waxing strips with me. The last thing my boyfriend wants to deal with at this traumatic time is having a girlfriend with a bikini line that resembles a baby Chewbacca.
