A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material having, on a support, a yellow dye-forming light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, a magenta dye-forming light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a cyan dye-forming light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and a light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer that does not develop a color, wherein a total amount of a hydrophilic binder on the emulsion layer-coating side of the support is 6.0 g/m.sup.2 or less, and at least one of said silver halide emulsion layers contains at least one compound selected from metal complexes represented by formula (I) set forth below and a silver halide emulsion of a 90 mole % or more silver chloride content with a silver bromide-containing phase formed in a layer form.
