She advanced her career with her performance in 1995 sitcom series Pepa y Pepe, in which she played Clarita, the middle sibling in the protagonist family characterised as a sarcastic and macabre yet also sensible grunge-loving teenager.[4][5] She trained her acting chops under Juan Carlos Corazza.[6] She landed her feature film debut in Time of Happiness (1997).[7] Her performance in The Yellow Fountain as Lola, a half-Spanish half-Chinese wild child,[8] earned her a nomination to the Goya Award for Best New Actress.[9]

She was appointed as Unicef goodwill ambassador in 2003.[10]

In April 2011, Abascal suffered a stroke which temporarily halted her career.[11][12][13][14] Ten months later, she made a comeback to the spotlight attending the gala of the 26th Goya Awards.[3] She made a film performance in Pasaje de vida [es] (2015).[11]
