"I've never seen them at Hamad al Saleem's shop....do they look like normal light bulbs?"

Never been there. I shop at Target, Walmart and Sam's. Yeah, some of them do. They have a plastic cover. But, in the end, they have a a thin fluorescent tube that is twisted for the most volume. The point being is that they screw into a standard socket and deliver the equivalent lumens at about 1/4 of th wattage. There is a choice as to color temperature. From typical fluorescent light/outdoorsy to closer to incadescent lamps. But not as red.
