unfaced
Lacking front covering
Unfaced means lacking a face or facing.
In construction, unfaced insulation or concrete block has no covering material on its surface, unlike faced versions with paper, foil, or decorative finish.
The word can also describe something not yet confronted: The challenge remained unfaced.
Rarely, it describes a literal absence of facial features.
