Please be sure that fontawesome is tagged in your code, with that, the code will work fine.

The CSS content attribute does not support HTML, it only supports plain text, this is why the icon in ::after is not showing.

As you need to insert HTML content in this case, a possible solution could be to use Javascript (and jQuery in this example) to add the <i> element before and after the text inputs.

As for the CSS, for positioning the icons next to the input, you can use display: inline-block and possibly some margin, instead of position: absolute.

$(".username input, .password input").before("<i class='fa fa-envelope icon'></i>");
$(".username input, .password input").after("<i class='fa fa-envelope icon'></i>");
.username input[type="text"], .password input[type="password"]{
    padding: 5px;
    position: relative;
    border-radius: 2px;
    border:1px solid #ECF0EF;
    height: 35px;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 28px -15px rgba(0,0,0,1);
    -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 28px -15px rgba(0,0,0,1);
    box-shadow: 0px 0px 28px -15px rgba(0,0,0,1);

}
.username i, .password  i{
  display:inline-block;
  z-index: 9999;
  height: 10px;
  line-height: 2;
  margin: 0 10px;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css' />
<div class="username">
      <input type="text" placeholder="Username" />
</div>
<div class="password">
      <input type="password" placeholder="Password" />
</div>

Edit: And if you can only use HTML and CSS, there is not much to do, other than hard-coding the icons before and after each input:

<i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i>
<input type="text" placeholder="Username" />
<i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i>

To add an icon to an input, the tag is usually used. Eg

<style> 


    .input-icons { 

        width: 100%; 

        margin-bottom: 10px; 

    } 



    .icon { 

        padding: 10px; 

        min-width: 40px; 

    } 



    .input-field { 

        width: 100%; 

        padding: 10px; 

        text-align: center; 

    } 

</style> 


<h3> 

  Icons inside the input element 


<div style="max-width:400px;margin:auto"> 

    <div class="input-icons">  

        <i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i> 

        <input class="input-field" type="text"> 

        <i class="fa fa-padlock icon"></i> 

        <input class="input-field" type="password"> 

    </div>

Make sure you have linked bootstrap and fontawesome to you head tag, then you proceed by coding these:

<div class="input-group mb-3">
    <div class="input-group-append">
        <span class="input-group-text"><i class="fas fa-user"></i></span>
    </div>
    <input type="text" name="" class="form-control input_user" value="" placeholder="username">
</div>
<div class="input-group mb-2">
    <div class="input-group-append">
        <span class="input-group-text"><i class="fas fa-key"></i></span>
    </div>
    <input type="password" name="" class="form-control input_pass" value="" placeholder="password">
</div>

then you continue with your styling

I made a couple of changes to the CSS and HTML (added another element for the other image).

app.component.css

.loginInput label{
    color: #A7AAB3;
}

/* EDITS START HERE */

.username,
.password {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  position: relative;
  border-radius: 2px;
    border:1px solid #ECF0EF;
    height: 35px;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 28px -15px rgba(0,0,0,1);
    -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 28px -15px rgba(0,0,0,1);
    box-shadow: 0px 0px 28px -15px rgba(0,0,0,1);
}

.username input[type="text"],
.password input[type="password"]{
    padding: 5px 27.5px;
    position: relative;
    border: none;
    background-color: unset;
}

.username i:first-child,
.password i:first-child {
  left: 7.5px;
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 9999;
}
.username i:last-child,
.password i:last-child {
    right: 7.5px;
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 9999;
}
.password input::after{
    content: '<i class="fa fa-envelope icon"> ';
}

/* EDITS END HERE */

.checkbox{
    float: left;
}

app.component.html

<div class="loginInput">
  <label>Or sign in with credentional </label>
    <div class="inputs">
      <div class="username">
        <i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i>
        <input id="text" type="text" placeholder="Username">
        <!-- Added this line. -->
        <i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i> 
      </div>
      <div class="password">
        <i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i>
        <input type="password" placeholder="Password">
        <!-- Added this line. -->
        <i class="fa fa-envelope icon"></i>
      </div>
    <div class="rememberMe">
      <input class="styled-checkbox" id="styled-checkbox-1" type="checkbox" value="value1">
      <label for="styled-checkbox-1">Checkbox</label>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Here is a fork of your code with the changes made: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-nq6j8u.

Hope it helps!
