unrevealing
Keeping secrets well
Unrevealing describes something that fails to disclose or expose information.
An unrevealing interview yields no new insights.
Unrevealing clothing covers rather than shows the body.
The word emphasizes the absence of revelation where some might be expected: His expression remained unrevealing throughout the interrogation.
