Assalamualaikum
The face is the focus of temptation and desire, it is the most tempting part of her body, because what people look at most is the face, so the face is the greatest ‘awrah of a woman. In these present times where immorality and sin is widespread, a muslimah will be safe from sin covering her face.
(p.s to clarify i have not said you should or shold not cover your face in islam)
