That phrase is actually incorrect in a sense that everyone actually has the same features. We all have eyes and noses don’t we? If you’re going to compliment someone on their “features” what you are actually referring to is their innate traits. Features are the things themselves such as eyes, lips, noses, anything on our body that we have in common with everyone else. Now, the types of eyes—blue, brown,hazel, you name it— are called traits. Traits are different forms of features. Therefore, the phrase stated above should really be, “You have beautiful traits!” Because the combination of traits that individuals possess are what makes them unique.
