Dion promoted The Colour of My Love in North America on various television programmes in late 1993 and early 1994. Additionally, her The Colour of My Love Concert aired in December 1993 in Canada and in February 1994 in the United States. Dion also embarked on The Colour of My Love Tour and performed concerts in the United States in February 1994, and in Canada through May 1994. After the success of "Think Twice" outside North America, she also started promoting the album in 1995 in Europe, including the United Kingdom.

Dion also performed three songs form The Colour of My Love on Top of the Pops in the United Kingdom: "The Power of Love" (1994), "Think Twice" (1995) and "Only One Road" (1995).
Critical reception
Upon release, the album received mixed reviews from music critics, with positive attention given to Dion's vocals. Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic gave it three out of five stars and wrote that the album follows the same pattern as Dion's eponymous breakthrough, and while the songs aren't quite as consistent this time around, the record is nevertheless quite successful, thanks to the careful production, professional songwriting (highlighted by "When I Fall in Love", "The Power of Love", and "Think Twice") and Dion's powerhouse performances.[9] Brad Webber from Chicago Tribune gave the album two out of four stars.[10] He felt that "sickly sweet, by-the-books standards" like "The Power of Love" belie Dion's talent: "forcefully resonant and multiflavored vocals."[10] He criticized "crooked roots" of a Janet Jackson impersonation ("Misled" and "Think Twice"), formulaic duo ballad ("When I Fall in Love") and added that with Dion's attempt at soul, you can categorize her as "fairly shallow, sort of a female Michael Bolton."[10] However Webber praised an "exotic thrill" in "Refuse to Dance", which "throws a little variety in the mix."[10]
