Actually GA would increase the effective healing, since then if you life steal 100 health, then having twice as much armor and resistance would mean you are effectively healing for 200 health. So you want a balance. That's why you buy GA on Riven since it amplifies her shield more than just building more AD.

You will want another AD item though, Maw is a great choice since it provides that resistance against burst damage.
