Photographic processing solution having a stabilizing ability and a method for processing a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material

A photographic stabilizing solution having a stabilizing ability for a magenta dye image comprising formaldehyde, wherein said photographic stabilizing solution further contains an amine compound having at least one --NH-- group which is represented by formula (I'):

• ##STR25## wherein the Za represents --N.dbd. or --C(R.sub.2).dbd., R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 may be the same or different and each represents a hydrogen atom or an unsubstituted alkyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms;
• the above groups may be further substituted with the group represented by R.sub.1 and a hydroxyl group;
• and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 or R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 may be combined with each other to form a 5- to 7-membered ring and wherein the --NH-- equivalent amount per liter of the photographic stabilizing solution is greater than the molar concentration of formaldehyde in the photographic stabilizing solution.
