The Face is a modeling–themed reality television series that follows three supermodel coaches (mentor) as they compete with each other to find 'the face' of major brand. The original US version premiered in 2013 on Oxygen. The series is now an international franchise, with adaptations worldwide.[1][2][3] Naomi Campbell is executive producer, serves as a supermodel coach, and chooses supermodel mentors for the American, British and Australian adaptations.
The show is well received in Asia, with Vietnam and Thailand both producing multiple seasons. Thailand has also launched a male-centric version of The Face Men and The Look based on the original show. Vietnam has also launched The Face Online and many other spin-offs. On the other hand, some versions in countries like France, Canada, etc. have been canceled due to lack of investment.[4][5] The Netherlands also has a show, but it is not the original format of The Face by Banijay.
As of 2025, The Face is present in five countries. Of these, two are still active. The rest are no longer active. The series has also found sixteen 'the faces'–corresponding to sixteen seasons, around the world.
