Default headlight out?

sorry for the noob question, but here goes:
i noticed the other night that one of my headlights is out. i just purchased them over the summer so i'm certain theyre not burned out. i checked my fuse panel and both fuses are fine and intact. what could have caused this? i am going to try switching them tonight to see if its the actual bulb.

Well since the headlight itself is just a plastic thing it's not like it can stop working, it has to be the bulb.

What kind of bulbs are they?? If there after market with xenon gas then they can blow if the oils off your hand touch the bulb.. if there stock then maybe they blew beucase of age, check the filiment in the bulb and see if the coil looking thing in the middle is split, if it is it means it's blown.
