In general, if it does not classify as "zeenah", beautifying oneself, it would be permissible, however Ayatullah Udhma Sistani does not allow even soft or natural looking makeup.

No, a family member cannot do that. It is the authority of the Islamic judge, in an Islamic government. 

The family members must all just try to advice and guide.

Yes, it is permissible, and of course a good thing. We need more Muslim female professionals. Of course, like many other industries and work, she must observe matters of interaction and physical contact with non-mahram males.

Have you expressed your concern about this to them? Have you spoken about not only how it is haram, but also how it will deprive them of barakah and tawfiq in their lives? Try your best to politely explain all of this, and remind them.

If they still insist on having haram elements in their wedding, I would recommend you attend only the essential parts of the wedding, so as not to create conflict and future problems for yourself, as he is your brother. You can then excuse yourself, once there are haram things. If anyone objects, or gets upset, that is for them. You cannot obey or please someone at the cost of disobeying and displeasing Allah ta'ala.

No. You do not need to do ghusl. The only time you will need to do ghusl is when the seminal discharge is by ejaculation, or intercourse. The pre-seminal fluid, etc, do not need ghusl. In your case, as it came out with urine, it just needs washing.

The first step is to make sure the husband cooperates, so that he does not refrain from granting divorce, as that will make things difficult. Speak to your family, and your local scholar, and follow the procedure for shar'i divorce.
