Find what’s working on RedNote.
Many shoppers research on RedNote before they buy. Here is how to find what gets saved there — and how to ask about it in English or Chinese.
How to read a RedNote trend
Five habits that separate a trend from a lucky note.
Sort by what people keep
Likes are cheap; saves mean someone plans to come back. For product categories, rank notes by saves.
A window you choose
Look at the last 30 days, and check each note’s publish date — an old evergreen note can top the ranking for months.
Group by format
Ingredient comparisons, wear tests, tutorials and plain recommendations perform differently. Count which formats dominate the top notes.
Read the titles
Titles with a concrete number or claim (“tested for 8 hours”) often stand out. Check whether the top notes share one.
Read the notes, not just the ranking
Open the top notes in full — text, images and comments — before you brief a creator on “the trend”.
Or just ask
Which sunscreen notes on RedNote got the most saves in the last 30 days, and what do they have in common?
- The top notes by saves from RedNote’s own search
- The formats and title patterns they share
- Quotes kept in the original Chinese
- A recommendation for your next note

Questions
Do I need to read Chinese?
No. Ask in English and the answer comes in English; quotes from notes keep their original Chinese so nothing is lost in translation.
Can I do this for my own category?
Yes. Name the category or keyword; Soradar runs RedNote’s own search for it and reads the top notes.
