Eat more. Progressive overload.

Lift heavy and to failure, and eat high protein with a slight calorie surplus, if that goes for awhile and you become less toned than u want, eat in a slight deficit while maintaining high protein and ur gonna kick ass🫡 gonna take time but that’s inevitable

need to eat more to build muscle

Make sure you're eating above 1300cal MINIMUM. If you're already thin then you need to eat above maintenance to build. Don't fear carbs. Carbs fuel workouts to build muscle, protein is the building blocks and makes sure the muscle doesn't break down.

I started as literal skin and bones and struggled with this a lot!!! Basically, you probably have a SUPER active metabolism like me. If you think you're eating enough, you aren't. I found that, after tracking a lot, with exercise, I straight up lose my period if I eat under 2500 cals/day. I have to kinda force-feed myself sometimes.

Also if you're big on cardio you need to eat even more to make up for what you burn

Do not let yourself deterred. Keep lifting AS HEAVY AS YOU CAN. Get that good cardio in. Eat A LOT, and eat A LOT of protein. A LOT. With our metabolism, recommended intake isn't enough. You need MINIMUM 1-1 protein:body weight or more. The progress will roll in. I started packing on actual body volume around 1.5 years of consistency and diligence (I got results before that, but I was still just so fucking skinny. I'm talking actual hips, thighs, ass, dense shoulders, juicy biceps, 8-pack, etc)
