Using the same CSS values as in the Figma design, produces different values

I'm trying to implement Figma's design, but noticed it's not always accurate:

This is the input field I want to create:

Please note how thin the text is. These are the values from Figma:

color: var(--heading-black, #222);
/* Button/16/Regular */
font-family: Inter;
font-size: 16px;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
line-height: 16px;

I also used the same color and font weight, I even tried using 100 instead of 400, but my result was:

My text is thicker, I don't know why. Here is the CSS code for my input field:

.search-field {
    margin-left: 65px;
    width: 429px;
    height: 44px;   
    font-size: 16px;
    font-weight: 400;
    padding-left: 46px;
    background: url("../../../assets/icons/search.png") no-repeat;
    background-color: white;
    background-size: 21px;
    background-position: 14px center;
    border: none;
    border-radius: 4px;
    outline: none;
    color: #222;
}

and html:

<input type="text" class="search-field" value placeholder="Booking.com, Expedia, Otto...">

What did i do wrong?

If you get the same result even if you change the font weight value, it means you have one of the following issues:

Your font does not have or has not been imported with the required weight value (for example: you want 100, but the closest value contained in the @font font is 400);
Check that no other rules will not override it;

One last thing, in this case you want to change the appearance of the placeholder, so you have to use pseudo-element ::placeholder so you can just change the style of the placeholder without risking Risk of other problems arising.

In the code, I gave the placeholders a lighter color to simulate the result.

.search-input{
    box-sizing: border-box;
    background-color: #21A668;
    padding: 10px;
}

.search-field{
    width: 429px;
    height: 44px;   
    font-size: 16px;
    font-weight: 400;
    padding: 0 10px 0 46px;
    background: url("../../../assets/icons/search.png") no-repeat;
    background-color: white;
    background-size: 21px;
    border: none;
    border-radius: 4px;
    outline: none;
    color: #222;
}

.search-field::placeholder{
    color: #bdbdbd;
}

Try adding the font-family attribute and its value in the selector, and use the cdn I'm using here since it embeds all available font weights.

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@100;200;300;400;500;600;700;800;900&family=Open+Sans&family=Plus+Jakarta+Sans:ital,wght@0,200;0,300;0,400;0,500;0,600;0,700;0,800;1,200;1,300;1,400;1,500;1,600;1,700;1,800&display=swap');

.search-field{font-family: 'Inter', sans-serif;}

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@100;200;300;400;500;600;700;800;900&family=Open+Sans&family=Plus+Jakarta+Sans:ital,wght@0,200;0,300;0,400;0,500;0,600;0,700;0,800;1,200;1,300;1,400;1,500;1,600;1,700;1,800&display=swap');

body{
  background: green;
}

.search-field {
    margin-left: 65px;
    width: 429px;
    height: 44px;
    font-family: 'Inter', sans-serif;
