Hello! I got this haworthia cooperi in the mail a couple of weeks ago and potted it in perlite and succulent mix last week. It got low light for a couple of days, then indirect light, then I moved it to my south-facing window behind other plants. I bottom-watered yesterday. However, the bottom leaves are shrivelling. Is this normal for the conditions it was in? Is there anything I can do for my haworthia?
Thank you so much for your help in advance! I’ve always dreamed of growing one of these and I want to give it the best care possible.

It’s perfectly normal, especially for one that was recently shipped, repotted, and is adjusting to new conditions.
Leaves aren’t immortal, the oldest do shrivel up once in a while. When put through stressful changes, the plant is going to use the stored energy from a few at once to support itself while it roots/recovers.
