The Face is an American reality television modeling competition series. The show is hosted by Nigel Barker, who was a previous judge on America's Next Top Model. The Face follows three supermodel coaches as they compete with each other to find 'the face' of a make-up brand. It premiered February 12, 2013, on Oxygen.[1][2][3]

The series was renewed in April 2013 for a ten-episode second season,[4] which premiered on March 5, 2014.[5] While Naomi Campbell reappears in two seasons, Anne Vyalitsyna and Lydia Hearst replaced Coco Rocha and Karolina Kurkova as supermodel coaches for season two.[6] In late 2014, Oxygen announced that they had no plans for a third season.
