How could someone survive in the Quantum Realm?
In Ant-Man and the Wasp, how did
Janet Van Dyne live in the Quantum Realm? How did she get the hood, the spear... the makeup?
Do they explain it in the movie?

By “spear”, do you mean the thing strapped to her back? I think that was a wing from her Wasp suit. Presumably the hood was made from whatever she was wearing under the suit. And as for make-up, she’s Michelle Pfieffer! She just looks like that!

While in the Quantum Realm, you catch a glimpse of a city in the background encased in a dome. Possible she could acquire those items and food / whatever there.

None of it is explicitly explained, we are essentially expected to accept it because the MCU need the format for upcoming films.
We know that the Quantum Realm has some effect on humans, presented in Janet's abilities later on in the film.

I think the answer is hidden in the word "EVOLUTION". Van Dyne uses this word when she says, "this place changes you". I think she means that since time and space work very differently in the Quantum Realm, then the way we humans evolve would work differently too. Somehow her mind and her body evolved to survive the new ecosystem she had to survive in. This is one thing we humans are good at - adapting & surviving and these two things bring evolution.
This fascinates me because of a free VSauce YouTube Red MindField episode I watched a few days ago. This video talks about a theory that seems appropriate.

Well, technically, evolution happens by genetic changes that make someone more likely to survive and pass on those genes to new generations. So, unless this is Janet Van Dyne the 47th, who just somehow thinks shes the original, not technically evolution in the scientific sense.

Nothing is explained.
It appears that some propery of the Quantum Realm manifests as some sort of healing energy. This is presumably what sustains Janet.
this is what Janet uses to help Ava in the conclusion
We know there's some sort of mental connection involving the Quantum Realm. Perhaps this also allows Janet to manipulate her environment, making it livable and creating clothes etc.
In general, there's no science or logic to what happens in Ant Man. You just have to accept the premise that there's this cool size-changing stuff that works however the writers need it to, and go with it. It's superhero Action/Comedy/Drama, not SciFi.

By “spear”, do you mean the thing strapped to her back? I think that was a wing from her Wasp suit. Presumably the hood was made from whatever she was wearing under the suit. And as for make-up, she’s Michelle Pfieffer! She just looks like that!
