Victoria, I will have to let those more knowledgeable growing succulents tell you about watering. I literally water all mine with a hose-end, "gentle rain" attachment..............not too scientific, I know.
Since I let my potting media get really dry, I will water the plants (I don't worry that water gets on the leaves, and for many growers, I realize that is a no-no) until the water runs out the drainage holes, and then re-water them after perhaps 15 minutes so that I know the media is thoroughly moist.
