Full Coverage foundation for extremely dry skin

I've got extremely dry skin - I can literally feel myself scaling up throughout the day. So far I've tried MAC Studio Fix Fluid, Illamasqua Skin Base, Rimmel Match Perfection, and then my current two foundations - Diorskin Star and Loreal True Match. I love them for every day wear but I miss that full coverage. Any suggestions? I was wanting to try Estee Lauder Double Wear and Nars Sheer Matte but if they're just gonna mess up my skin then no point wasting money.

EDIT: I have a price limit of around about the same as Dior Star. Maybe £1/2 over.

I love Dior's Capture Totale Foundation. It's very dry skin friendly. I also have very dry skin and with other foundations I always see dry patches on my face, but this one is the best I've ever tried. Estee Lauder's Double Wear is okay compared to Capture Totale. I have samples of Double Wear, I wore it two days ago and saw a few dry patches... and today with Capture Totale I have none.

Ahh thank you but way out of my price range. Probably should've mentioned, I don't want to go too much pricer than Dior Star! But thank you

Estee Launder's Double Wear would be my second choice if I had to get another foundation. You should get a sample if you can and try it out. Even though Capture Totale is pricey, I think it's an investment more than anything. A bottle will last you about 8 1/2 months.

Either EL Double Wear or Double Wear Maximum Cover (latter has even more coverage than regular DW). Illamasqua Rich Liquid is supposed to be really full coverage.
