Please recommend a tone-up cream that doesn't accentuate dead skin cells even when applied roughly.

Please recommend a tone-up cream that brightens the complexion without caking, even when applied hastily on busy mornings! Strangely, whenever I use tone-up creams, the areas around my mouth and eyes look cakey, and my dead skin cells become very noticeable. The flakes appear like dry patches, and even after exfoliating thoroughly, all the fine flakes still stand out. It looks okay from a distance, but up close, my skin looks messy. I am currently using the Re:NK product shown in the picture, but I don't reach for it because it also highlights dead skin cells. My skin is quite thin; could that be the problem? Please recommend a tone-up cream that adheres well without caking, even when my skin isn't in good condition. I think a moisturizing type that focuses on skincare functions would be less prone to caking, but it would be even better if you could recommend a tone-up cream with good skincare effects that I can apply before bed.
