Try following. Assuming that you load photo in the image variable:

NSDictionary *options = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject: CIDetectorAccuracyLow forKey: CIDetectorAccuracy];
            CIDetector  *detector = [CIDetector detectorOfType: CIDetectorTypeFace context: nil options: options];

        CIImage *ciImage = [CIImage imageWithCGImage: [image CGImage]];
        NSNumber *orientation = [NSNumber numberWithInt:[image imageOrientation]+1];
        NSDictionary *fOptions = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:orientation forKey: CIDetectorImageOrientation];
            NSArray *features = [detector featuresInImage:ciImage options:fOptions];
            for (CIFaceFeature *f in features) {

                NSLog(@"left eye found: %@", (f. hasLeftEyePosition ? @"YES" : @"NO"));

                NSLog(@"right eye found: %@", (f. hasRightEyePosition ? @"YES" : @"NO"));

                NSLog(@"mouth found: %@", (f. hasMouthPosition ? @"YES" : @"NO"));

                if(f.hasLeftEyePosition)

                    NSLog(@"left eye position x = %f , y = %f", f.leftEyePosition.x, f.leftEyePosition.y);

                if(f.hasRightEyePosition)

                    NSLog(@"right eye position x = %f , y = %f", f.rightEyePosition.x, f.rightEyePosition.y);

                if(f.hasMouthPosition)

                    NSLog(@"mouth position x = %f , y = %f", f.mouthPosition.x, f.mouthPosition.y);

            }
