A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material comprising a support having provided thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer, wherein the silver halide emulsion layer contains at least one cyan dye forming coupler and at least one polymer latex represented by the following formula (I):--(A).sub.x --(B).sub.y -- (I)wherein A represents a repeating unit derived from at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer having at least one --COOM group (wherein M represents a hydrogen atom or a cation) in its molecule; B represents a repeating unit derived from at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer which does not have the --COOM group; and x and y represent weight percentages of A and B, respectively, x represents a number of from 25 to 85, y represents a number of from 75 to 15, and x+y=100.The silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material is excellent in rapid processing suitability and provides a color photograph having an excellent image quality in which degradation of color balance does not occur with the lapse of time after processing since the blix discoloration of cyan image in that the cyan dye formed by color development turns into its leuco-body in a bleaching or blixing solution is substantially prevented.
