To outface someone — or a hard moment — is to meet it , without looking away, so that your courage holds. The old picture is a staring match: you “out-face” them; your facing is stronger than theirs, and they are the ones who drop their eyes. You can also outface fear, shame, or a difficult room of people, not only a person who is against you. It is a slightly old, verb. People today more often say face down or stand up to. Though actually, it is not about turning your face outward; it is about not backing down.
勇敢面對、正眼對上（不低頭）
