Why is it le nez but ses lèvres?

Asked 4 years ago
CécileNative French expert teacher in KwiziqCorrect answer

Hi G,

1. se faire refaire le nez to have a 'nose job'

'le' because of the reflexive 'se faire refaire '

like - se laver les dents, se brosser les cheveux, se casser la jambe  etc.

2. rendre ses lèvres plus grosses = to make her lips bigger 

nobody else's lips.

Hope this helps!
