Face mask uncovered and kissed - I say! (6)

I believe the answer is:

aspect

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'face' is the definition.
(I know that face can be written as aspect)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for aspect that I've seen before include "View, panorama" , "Distant view of a wide area" , "Appearance or viewpoint" , "Viewpoint or view" , "View - distinct feature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
