I have my hair layered and i have bangs and it is cut above my shoulders too!. so to keep my bangs back i usually pull them all to one side with some longer hair and twist them upward!. the i put a bobby pin in the twist to keep it in place!. also hair spray is my best friend ha ha!. get the extra hold or extra strength kind so it will stay in place!. as for the bun i would get a fake one so u don't have to go through the trouble of putting a bunch of bobby pins or hair pins and it for sure won't fall out!.
as for the make up you could do a light purple eye shadow on your eye lid, then a pink- ish color on your brow bone, and a dark purple on the outside corner of your eye with a purple or black eye liner

Here, I think they have one for shorter hair, also, make sure to have hairspray and a lot of bobby pins!.

Use a fake bun!. Tie your hair back and attach the fake bun!. No one will know!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
I use a chignon (a hair form, made of foam!.!.!. looks like a donut)!.
If you don't have a beauty supply store then you can make one from a tube sock!. Cut the toe off and roll it tightly until you have a donut shape!. Make a high sleek ponytail with your hair, and hairspray the heck out of the sleek part on your head to keep any small wisps in place!. I recommend spray gel or a freeze spray!. Then pull the ponytail through the center of the donut and place the donut against your head!. Lean your head forward and let your hair fall all around the donut, spreading it evenly so that it doesn't show through!. Next pull a rubber band around the entire hair-covered donut!.
What you now have is a bun with hair sticking out all around it!. Scoop the pieces of extra hair in a clockwise direction around the bun, pinning as you go!. Secure with bobby pins until no more wisps are sticking out!. Then spray the heck out of it some more!. Voila! A perfect bun, even with layers it can be done!.
