It looks like powdery mildew.

Make sure you move it away from other plants. Powdery mildew spreads. I have a few succulents that get this I think from no air circulation. I’d cut it off.

i did cut it off and wiped down the other leaves with rubbing alcohol followed by a wet paper towel. it always happens when the leaf is about to die it’ll happen to the lowest set of leaves and then i’ll cut them off and in a few weeks it happens again. she arrived to me like this in the mail so i thought she was just exposed to high heat but she keeps doing this and idk how to stop it
