What close-up lens?

I love macro photography and spending time outside. With my photography I’ll shoot anything natural, from close-up flowers in the summer to frosty leaves in the winter. This year my aim was to take my photography more seriously, and as a starting point I want to make gift cards from my images to sell. I’d like to invest in a macro lens, but I am very confused where to start as I’m not technically minded. Any advice?
