Just go to Admin -> Stores -> Attribute -> Product -> Color(Attribute),
Change Catalog Input Type for Store Owner to Visual swatch and add Swatch Colors...
Go on Storefront Properties tab. Click on dropdown Use in Layer Navigation select Filterable (with results).
Do not forget to clear the cache and make reindex.
Good luck! :)
