Where to Find Facewear in FFXIV Dawntrail
The new expansion for Final Fantasy XIV Online (FFXIV) has been up for a few days now and while it has introduced a new land to explore, it also has new features. Notably, the expansion separates fashion accessories and battle equipment. In this article, we will look at the new Facewear category.

What Is a Facewear?
In previous patches of FFXIV, there was a category in the Fashion Accessories that lists your acquired Spectacles. In Dawntrail, this is now replaced by “Facewear.” If you own Spectacles before the change to Facewear, the next section will walk you through the process of converting your Spectacles to Facewear.
How to Convert Spectacles to Facewear
This is not complicated as it sounds. If you own Spectacles before the Dawntrail update, you just have to follow these steps to obtain their equivalent Facewear.
- Visit a Calamity Salvager
- Choose Spectacle Exchange from the menu.
- Select your Spectacles to convert to Facewear.
- That’s all!
You can find Calamity Salvager in the following areas:
- Limsa Lominsa: Upper Decks (X: 11.4, Y: 14.4)
- Old Gridania (X: 10.0, Y: 8.4)
- Ul’dah: The Steps of Thal (X: 12.6, Y: 13.1)
Easy as pie, right?
