I have used a bit of WD-40 for this exact purpose.

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Lubricating a light socket?


  Can one lubricate a light socket?
  I have a ceiling fan that uses these small round 40 watt bulbs. No matter
  how easily I screw the bulbs in, half the time I have to break the bulb to
  get it out.
  This is partially the design of the globes that the bulb goes in. You can't
  get your fingers around the bulb to grasp it firmly, and of course you can't
  remove the open end globe while the light is in tact.
  Is there a lubricant that can be used in a light socket to make the
  unscrewing of the bulbs easier?
