Coloured globes are just an incandescent with a filter over the glass bulb part.... doesnt increase heat.
Incandescent normally fail on start up when the nichrome wire contracts and heats to white hot.. the contraction part kills the wire.

You can make coloured bu;bs just by spraying them with normal spray can paint.. works really well.
The failure of any bulb is due to how well made it is
