How to get all FFXIV Facewear accessories in Dawntrail

As part of the update that brought us Dawntrail, a new glamour slot was added to Final Fantasy XIV — Facewear. These items replace those previously in the Fashion Accessory category, but there’s also some new ones to be found if you know where to look. 

There are currently a total of 10 Facewear items available in Final Fantasy XIV, although more will likely be added in future patches. As such, this guide will be updated to include all newly added Facewear items when they’re added. 

Facewear items from the pre-FFXIV 7.0 update

If you had spectacles before the 7.0 launch, you can easily get them back. Once retrieved from a Calamity Salvager, they will automatically become Facewear items with 12 different color options. 

The following Facewear items can be retrieved from a Calamity Salvager if you had them before the slot was unlocked in Dawntrail:

• False Oval Spectacles
• False Shaded Spectacles
• False Classic Spectacles
• Rose-colored Spectacles

Purchase Facewear using MGP in FFXIV

If you want to expand your collection of shades, you can purchase a range of Facewear items at the Gold Saucer. To do this, talk to the Prize Attendant in the Gold Saucer (X:5.1, Y:6.6).

Here’s all of the Facewear you can get and how much it costs:

Facewear obtained from vendors in FFXIV

There are a few different types of Facewear which can be purchased from the following vendors:

Other ways to get Facewear in FFXIV

Through Trisassant in Old Sharlayan (X:12.0, Y:13.3), you can get a pair of The Faces We Wear – Rose-colored Spectacles if you didn’t already have them before 7.0. These cost 3 Rokkon Potsherds each, so you’ll need to unlock and run the variant dungeon Mount Rokkon before you can purchase these.

The hardest to obtain Facewear item is currently The Faces We Wear – Classic Spectacles. These are obtained through Submarine Ventures. To get them, you’ll need to be a part of an FC which has a rank 91 Submarine, and send it out on a Venture to Anthemoessa.
