Description

Product Overview

Bay Rum is the oldest scent in wet shaving and this is Taconic’s take on it: a full-bodied splash with hints of cinnamon and citrus, refreshing and spicy rather than sweet.

It is alcohol free, which is the point of the range. The base is an organic herbal extract of aloe vera infused with witch hazel, Japanese honeysuckle, chamomile flower, willow bark, calendula flowers, goldenseal and lavender buds, with glycerin and allantoin alongside it and a light hit of menthol for the cooling. 4 oz., made in the USA.

What This Splash Does

A blade takes the top layer of skin along with the hair. That is why a shaved face stings and tightens. A post-shave splash puts something back on that surface immediately, before it has a chance to dry out and complain.

Taconic’s route to that is botanical rather than alcoholic. It names witch hazel for what it calls anti-inflammatory, toning and antiseptic properties, aloe vera, glycerin and allantoin for moisturizing and healing, and a light hit of menthol for the cooling. Those are Taconic’s descriptions of its own formula.

Who This Is Best For

Alcohol-free routines
No alcohol at all, so nothing to sting freshly shaved skin.
Traditional scents
The classic barbershop bay rum, without the alcohol.
Menthol cooling
A light hit of menthol rather than a heavy mentholated hit.

How To Use It

Rinse your face with cold water after shaving or cleansing. Shake the bottle and pour liberally into the palm of your hand, rub your hands together and pat it onto your face and neck in a downward motion. Avoid the eye area, because the menthol in it will sting.

That downward motion and the cold rinse are Taconic’s own instructions, not ours. The cold water closes things down before the splash goes on.

Care and Storage

Close the bottle after use and keep it out of direct sunlight. There is nothing in it that needs refrigerating or special handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it smell like?
Taconic describes this Bay Rum as a full-bodied splash with hints of cinnamon and citrus, giving it a refreshing, spicy scent.
Is it alcohol free?
Yes. Taconic publishes the same line on every splash in this range: “End your shave on a high note with Taconic’s alcohol free botanical splash.” There is no alcohol burn to wait out, which is the whole reason this line exists.
What is in it?
As published by Taconic: Organic Herbal Extract (Aloe Vera infused with Witch Hazel, Japanese Honeysuckle, Chamomile Flower, Willow Bark, Calendula Flowers, Goldenseal, and Lavender Buds), Glycerin, Citric Acid, Polysorbate 20, Allantoin, Proprietary Fragrance/Essential Oil Blend, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol and Menthol.
Will it sting?
Not the way an alcohol splash does, because there is no alcohol in it. There is menthol, so keep it away from your eyes: Taconic says so directly in its own instructions.
How do I use it?
Rinse your face with cold water after shaving or cleansing. Shake the bottle and pour liberally into the palm of your hand, rub your hands together and pat it onto your face and neck in a downward motion. Avoid the eye area, because the menthol in it will sting.
Splash or balm?
A splash goes on wet and cool and disappears. A balm stays on the skin and moisturizes. Taconic makes both, and plenty of people use the splash in summer and the balm in winter.
How big is the bottle?
4 oz., as published by Taconic.
Where is it made?
The USA. Taconic states “Made in the USA” on every product in this range.
