white face
Mime's painted visage
White face typically describes the literal appearance of a pale or white-colored face, whether from fear, illness, or natural coloring.
In livestock, white face refers to breeds with distinctive white facial markings, especially Hereford cattle.
As a compound (whiteface), it can also mean the theatrical makeup worn by clowns or mimes—white greasepaint covering the entire face.
