Floating label over-aligning the input text

I am trying to create a floating label input field, i am able to achieve but on click of outside the input, the label text is over-aligning the input field. How could i make the label on the top when there is text or cursor active in input field.

Input.js

import React from "react";
import { FloatingContainer, FloatingInput, FloatingLabel } from "./style.js";

export const StyledFloatingInput = () => {
  return (
    <FloatingContainer>
      <FloatingInput />
      <FloatingLabel>Text</FloatingLabel>
    </FloatingContainer>
  );
};

style.js

import styled from "@emotion/styled";

export const FloatingContainer = styled.div`
  position: relative;
  margin-bottom: 20px;
  &::before,
  &::after {
    box-sizing: border-box;
  }
`;

export const FloatingInput = styled.input`
  font-size: 14px;
  padding: 4px 4px;
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: 30px;
  background-color: transparent;
  border: none;
  border-bottom: 1px solid #757575;
  &:focus {
    outline: none;
    border-bottom: 2px solid #5264ae;
  }
  &:focus ~ label {
    top: -18px;
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #5264ae;
  }
`;

export const FloatingLabel = styled.label`
  color: #999;
  font-size: 14px;
  font-weight: normal;
  position: absolute;
  pointer-events: none;
  left: 5px;
  top: 5px;
  transition: 0.2s ease all;
  -moz-transition: 0.2s ease all;
  -webkit-transition: 0.2s ease all;
`;

Here is the codesandbox what i have tried so far. Any help is appreciated

You need to target the :valid selector.

Example: https://codepen.io/seanstopnik/pen/a24ea5ebc5ba4dee84ff470d4d7e0e81

* {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

body {
  font-family: sans-serif;
  color: #1d364d;
  line-height: 1.6;
  padding: 60px;
}

::-moz-placeholder {
  color: #8f9d9d;
}

:-ms-input-placeholder {
  color: #8f9d9d;
}

::placeholder {
  color: #8f9d9d;
}

.form-item {
  position: relative;
  width: 360px;
  margin-bottom: 30px;
}

.label {
  display: block;
  font-size: 12px;
  margin-bottom: 5px;
}

.input {
  width: 100%;
  height: 40px;
  font-size: 14px;
  border: 0;
  box-shadow: inset 0 -2px 0 0 #b8c1c1;
  background-color: #f0f4f4;
  padding: 0px 15px;
  outline: none;
  transition: all 0.2s ease-in-out;
}
.input:focus {
  box-shadow: inset 0 -2px 0 0 #256dd3;
}

.form-item--text .label {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  color: #8f9d9d;
  font-size: 14px;
  transition: all 0.2s ease-in-out;
  transform: translate(15px, 8px);
}
.form-item--text .form-item__border {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: -8px;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 2px;
  border: 0;
  background-color: #256dd3;
  transform: scaleX(0);
  transition: all 0.2s ease-in-out;
}
.form-item--text .input:focus ~ .form-item__border {
  transform: scaleX(1);
}
.form-item--text .input:focus ~ .label, .form-item--text .input:valid ~ .label {
  color: #1d364d;
  font-size: 12px;
  transform: translate(0, -23px);
}
<div class="form-item form-item--text">
  <input id="input" class="input input--text" type="text" required>
  <label class="label" for="input">Name</label>
  <hr class="form-item__border">
</div>

Add minLength="0" required to input and and use :valid selector in style.

&:focus ~ label,
&:valid ~ label {
  top: -18px;
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #5264ae;
}
