Maybelline

Maybelline is one of the world's greatest and most famous companies. Based in New York and held by L'Oréal since 1996, it has made girls/women look beautiful since its inception.


Since the early-1990's era, Maybelline has used the iconic and world-famous slogan: Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybelline.



Tia Texada is the voice of Maybelline New York for over fifteen years, during which her own sexy and sultry delivery has made the Maybe it's Maybelline tagline one of the best in the advertising world.



During the Tia Texada era, Maybelline's iconic tagline had been divided into two parts.

The first part of the iconic Maybelline tagline (Maybe she's born with it) has a whispery tone, with the second portion (Maybe it's Maybelline) as a melodic musical jingle.

Virginia Dare and Virginia Laydon

Virginia Dare is the first person to be born in the New World having English ancestry.

Besides, another female figure with Virginia as her given name, who is Virginia Laydon, is the second English-descented person born in the New World and the first born in Jamestown.



Having been born to English parents, who were part of Sir Walter Raleigh's exhibition to establish the Roanoke colony, Virginia Dare vanished, however, as well as the colony itself.


Meanwhile, Jamestown has endured and survived, making Virginia Laydon a significant later figure in establishing population who survive in North America. 



The Roanoke colony is one of the two attempts by Sir Walter Raleigh to establish the first permanent English settlement in North America, but never succeeded.

Jamestown is the first English settlement in North America to successfully earn survival.



For Virginia Laydon's parents, they wed in Jamestown, the first recording English wedding to be taken place in this colony.
