Advice on my art to candles

[felipetortella]

I'm new to the forum and i'm trying to sell candles inspired by God and the Bible.
I'm not posting the links here, because it's not selfpromotion but if anyone is interrested, send me a message.

My questions are:
1) Do you like the design? If not, what I should improve?
2) Would you buy one for yourself or to give to someone you care? What about the price ($13,99) is ok or too expensive?
3) Any other tips

$1399 for a candle? That’s way overpriced! I hope you meant $13.99.

Still strikes me as a bit high, but with inflation going around I wouldn’t be surprised if it was actually worth that much.

Yes, $13.99
My production cost is $11.19 and still have another fees
But I'm not making for the money, it's a promise that I made with myself and God if I was ever cured from cancer.
I would make something to help others. Since I'm not rich, I'm trying to raise some money to help my community the way I can.
Using God words was I way that I think I can spread the word and still raise money to my plans here.

Sorry if my english is not good enough not my first mother language.

Never mind, just checked the prices on Amazon for candles. That’s actually a pretty low price for a scented candle these days. There’s a lot of benefits from candles, including increased prayer focus, though in the case of prayer the label could be distracting.

I like the design and the glass jar, though. Maybe make the label easy to peel off if needed?

Add a little color. What scent is in the Jesus one?

That is a really good advice I always re-use glass jars, thanks!

All candles have 5 options of scents

• Clean Cotton
• Sea Salt + Orchid
• White Sage + Lavender
• Apple Harvest
• Cinnamon Vanilla

I thought to add something in yellow, like something glow, but not sure where to put it. Maybe the text with

I like the text better without the yellow. I think it would be better to color the candles to match the scents offered, or color the label to match. Hopefully that doesn’t make your production cost shoot through the roof.

It kind of looks like a prescription label to me to be honest. I'd say a fancier font might be better. But then again I don't know anything about the scented candle market.

The presentation is good. You need a different font but otherwise it's fine. The color scheme is popular and should be marketed to minimalists.

Research the following terms on Pinterest: white aesthetic, natural aesthetic, minimalist, minimalism, simple living. You'll glean keywords and related details regarding your demographic.

If you're using natural ingredients make sure you mention it. Many are willing to pay extra for better products. Diptyque is a good example but there's others like them. Reference the candle channels on YouTube. There's several who provide tips for production, sales, and more.

I've included several images for your reference. Pay attention to the design and packaging. You may get a few ideas.
