Isn't "New face" English?

I met two non-Japanese at a church yesterday.
I met the woman the first time .
When I said to her " Are you a new face?", the acquaintance man pointed to himself and he gestured like "my face?".
It was different with usual because he had a beard.
Probably I thought he cleaned it because of a woman.

After having talked for a while, he said the words are not English.
The words that I were thinking English usually were "katakana".
I was a shock.
