The Colored Clay CC primer by Tarte is a pretty decent little primer. It comes in a tube and is a cream - type texture. The stick is divided into four quadrants - a green creme to cover red marks and splotches (let's be honest, we all have them), a purpley - pink section to give skin some color and vibrance, and two foundation sections that act as coverup.
I use this primer all over my face (literally smear it on every square inch) and then buff it out. Depending on your skin's level of issues, you could be fine just wearing the primer as your foundation and not adding anything else on top. I choose however to put a light, liquid foundation on top. The result is flawless looking skin. I am particularly impressed by the products ability to even out my skin tone, especially the red blotchy bits by my nose and old acne marks.
I would definitely recommend the product - it is a little expense (in my opinion) but it certainly accomplishes what it sets out to do, which is even out your skin tone and provide a beautiful base for flawless skin.

I LOVE this BB cream. I have acne prone skin (read: always have a few pimples on my face) so I have a number of red dark marks all over my cheeks from old acne. This BB covers flawlessly, much better than any foundation I have found over the past few years. It feels very light and not like I'm covering my face up with a paste. I have oily skin and yet I don't have a sheen two hours after application, like other foundations I've used. It stays on pretty well all day (it survives a 8 hour work day plus some time at the gym!). I use the medium to dark color and it matches my skin tone perfectly (I don't find it goes orange as some other reviewers have expressed). I prefer this product over foundations any day. -
