You can use input:focus + .fa
css selector do accomplish the task. Notice that I've changed the <span class="fa fa-user"></span>
to come after input element.

Your icon isn't inside the input field, that is how your CSS is described right now.
When you put the icon span after the input field, you can use the + selector to add css to the following element.
See this link https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/selector.html#adjacent-selectors
you can try this
<div class="input-pilotage">
<input type="text">
<label> date fin : </label>
<i class="fi-calendar"></i>
</div>
//css
.input-pilotage input:focus + label {
color: #005EB8;
}
.input-pilotage input:focus + label + i {
color: #005EB8;
}
