I just noticed that my Echeveria succulent is dying underneath, can someone help me and tell me why? I’m not amazing when it comes to plants I’m just trying to keep them alive.

Mine do this too as they get older. This is what I heard.

Like any plant, succulents have a life cycle. The bottom leaves are the oldest and will naturally wither and die as the plant matures.

It could also be signs of over or under watering as well. But if you know the water levels are good its just nature taking its course to focus its energy on the top part/new leaves.

Normal as long as the top leaves look and feel healthy! You can rip them off too;)

Keep a nose out for a stinky smell and root rot just to be safe. Water deep allow it to dry then water more

Also I recommend terracotta pot with lots of drainage
