Kim Kardashian West got a laugh thanks to a fan who created a fun thread comparing some of her most colorful outfits to hand sanitizers.

Noemi Leyva, a 23-year-old pharmacy technician in Dallas, Texas, started the thread in March after realizing how many different brands and scents of hand sanitizer there are.

"One day we were stocking the shelves with hand sanitizers and soaps, and I thought there were a lot of different ones, and since I've seen other threads where people do flowers, I thought I'll just do the hand sanitizers because of everything that's going on," Leyva told Insider.

Leyva explained that she started researching photos of hand sanitizer bottles and then looked through her phone for photos of outfits Kardashian West has worn through the years. The first time she tweeted the thread, Leyva shared 10 side-by-side photos. She then added more at the end of April, bringing her number of tweets in the thread up to 64.

"Originally, the goal was just to be funny, I just wanted Kim to laugh at it," the Twitter user said. "After that, a lot of people really liked it. The second time I added to it, it was just to show people how Kim actually dresses."

Levya got exactly what she wanted when the SKIMS founder retweeted the thread on Wednesday and wrote: "OMG HAHAHAHA!!!"

Some followers may not know that Leyva and Kardashian West actually have a special fan-celebrity relationship. The mogul started following the pharmacy tech in October 2019 and even invited her and other "KKW stans" to Kanye West's Sunday Service in Houston in November.

"Kim actually follows me and I've met her before, but every time she does mention me feels the same. I always get really excited when she replies or is in my notifications. I love her!" she said.

"Even after meeting her, I always look to her for inspiration," Leyva added. "Sometimes I do message her asking her questions, and she will reply. It just feels so surreal whenever she does mention me."

Of the 64 looks in the thread, Leyva said one of her favorites is Kardashian West's 2018 Met Gala outfit next to a photo of a Bath & Body Works bottle.

She is also a fan of the one-of-a-kind Yeezy dress Kardashian West wore to Kylie's 21st birthday in 2018 next to a crisp apple hand sanitizer from Walgreens.

Leyva also revealed that she has plans to continue adding to the thread but is having a hard time finding hand sanitizer bottles she hasn't used already.

"I have more hand sanitizer bottles saved, so I'm going to add more outfit pictures to my thread," she said. "I'm just trying to find any picture that will come up at this point."
