astonvilla65,

Make sure the face layer is below the mouth, nose and hair layers. You can just drag the layers around in the 'object manager' docker.

I find, for something simple like this, it's easier to put everything in the same layer and use the 'order' tool. Pressing the 'page up' button on your keyboard while holding down 'shift' will bring the selected object to the front, and likewise the 'page down' button. Alternatly you can go to 'Arrange' in the menu bar and select order.

Hope that was of some help.
