= Career =
Soon after graduating from CEA, Moussier found work as the co-host of Al ritmo de la noche with Jorge Ortiz de Pinedo. In 1996, she was cast in minor roles in Morir dos veces and Luz Clarita. The following year, Moussier portrayed the pianist Mireya Serrano in María Isabel.
Moussier's recognition increased in 1998 when she was cast in El privilegio de amar as the sympathetic model Lorenza Torres, which some have referred to as Moussier's best role yet.{{cite web | last = Venant | first = María Elena | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier está encasillada en el rol de villana | publisher = Univision.com | date = 16 June 2009 | url = http://www.univision.com/content/content.jhtml?cid=1970152 | archive-url = https://archive.today/20130205183058/http://www.univision.com/content/content.jhtml?cid=1970152 | url-status=dead | archive-date = 5 February 2013 | doi = | accessdate = 9 March 2010 }} Moussier later won the award for Best New Actress at the 1999 Premios TVyNovelas ceremony for her portrayal of Lorenza. That same year, she took on the role of the adulterous Diana de Lizárraga in Mujeres engañadas, alongside Arturo Peniche.{{citation needed|date= October 2022}}
In 2001, Moussier joined the cast of El derecho de nacer (a remake of the 1981 telenovela) as Graciela, a seemingly demure secretary who, disguised as a nun, frequents Yucatec brothels in order to satisfy not only her clients' base desires, but her own as well. The following year, she starred alongside César Évora and Susana González in Entre el amor y el odio, in which she portrayed the scheming Frida, the series' primary villainess, who plots alongside the odious Marcial (Alberto Estrella) to marry Évora's Octavio and gain control of his family's lands.{{citation needed|date= October 2022}}
Following the August 2002 finale of Entre el amor y el odio, Moussier took a two-and-a-half-year hiatus from her career in order to give birth to, and care for, her newborn daughter. In February 2005, Moussier starred as Évora's ex-fiancée in La madrastra as the vain and haughty murder suspect Fabiola de Mendizábal, a character with hints of mental instability who nonetheless redeems herself by the novela's end and winds up happy with her equally suspicious husband, Bruno (René Casados). Three months later, she debuted in Piel de otoño as ambitious businesswoman Rebeca Franco, who carries on an affair with the heroine's villainous husband Ramón (Sergio Goyri).{{citation needed|date= October 2022}}
After finishing Piel de otoño, Moussier took part in the theatrical play Hombres.{{cite web | last = Casab | first = Moisés | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier no descansa | publisher = Televisa | date = 23 August 2005 | url = http://www.esmas.com/pieldeotono/noticias/469471.html | doi = | accessdate = 26 March 2010 | url-status=dead | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20100326225904/http://www.esmas.com/pieldeotono/noticias/469471.html | archivedate = 26 March 2010 }} After giving birth to her second child, she returned to telenovelas late in 2006 as mafia boss Eva Santoro in Amar sin límites. The role marked a change for Moussier, as Eva Santoro was neither an unfaithful wife, nor a husband-stealer, nor a terrible mother. Despite her evil deeds, Eva became a popular character with the viewing audience, who came to view her more favorably than series heroine Azul (Karyme Lozano) and lamented her death. For her work as Eva, Moussier was nominated at the 2007 Premios TVyNovelas for Best Actress in her antagonistic role. She briefly reunited with the cast of La madrastra and took up the role of Fabiola in order to re-film the final ten episodes of the telenovela, which was being re-aired at the time, and to provide a new resolution to the murder mystery. She joined the star-studded cast of the mini-novela Amor sin maquillaje as Beatriz, pairing up with Piel de otoño co-star Sergio Goyri. The telenovela honored the fiftieth anniversary of Televisa and telenovelas in Mexico.
In 2008, Moussier starred as Marissa in Las tontas no van al cielo, a character with which the actress professed to be enamored.{{cite web | last = Flores | first = Adriana | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier se niega a los cambios de su personaje | publisher = Televisa | date = 28 March 2008 | url = http://www.esmas.com/espectaculos/telenovelas/717760.html | doi = | accessdate = 9 March 2010 | url-status=dead | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20110605161929/http://www.esmas.com/espectaculos/telenovelas/717760.html | archivedate = 5 June 2011 }} Marissa becomes a more sympathetic character after it is revealed that she was forced to have an unwanted abortion at the age of 15 and after her fiancé Santiago (Jaime Camil) leaves her pregnant at the altar for her friend, Candy (Jacqueline Bracamontes). However, much to Moussier's dismay, After wrapping up the filming of Las tontas, Moussier replaced Edith González as the protagonist, Elena Tejero, in the musical play Aventurera, though she withdrew from the cast a few months later following a leg injury.
In 2009, Moussier starred as the seductive, social-climbing Justina Almada de Huerta in Mi pecado. During the filming of Mi pecado, Moussier was diagnosed with Guillain–Barré syndrome. Though she and producer Juan Osorio Ortiz initially altered her filming schedule in order to accommodate her recovery, she was forced to withdraw from the cast shortly before the finale. Her character, Justina, was not recast, as Osorio had planned in advance for the possibility of Moussier's departure.{{cite web| last =| first =| author-link =| title =Sabine Moussier podría quedar paralítica| work =People en Español| date =4 November 2009| url =http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1934485,00.html| doi =| accessdate =18 February 2010| language =es| url-status=dead| archiveurl =https://web.archive.org/web/20100222100722/http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1934485,00.html| archivedate =22 February 2010}}
In 2011, she returned to Mexican telenovelas after she was diagnosed with Guillain–Barré syndrome, starring in her first protagonist role as Eleonor Cortazar in Ni contigo ni sin ti. In March 2012, Moussier starred as the seductive, vain, haughty, ambitious, villainously, social-climbing and scheming Carmina Bouvier in Abismo de pasión, a remake of Cañaveral de Pasiones. Her character is mentally unstable, who nonetheless redeems herself. In 2013, she participated in Amores verdaderos as Bruna Cristo in a special appearance. In 2014, Moussier starred as the antagonist role of Perla in La malquerida. In 2015, Moussier starred as the main antagonist Macaria, a seductive, hypocritical and cruel servant in Que te perdone Dios (a remake of 2000 telenovela Abrázame muy fuerte).{{citation needed|date= October 2022}}
For her contributions to television, Moussier's handprints were embedded onto the Paseo de las Luminarias in 2022.

However, because Moussier and Peralta had cohabited for more than five years and had children together, they were required, under the Mexican Constitution, to formally divorce nonetheless.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Ex de Sabine abrió su corazón | publisher = Univision | date = 12 August 2008 | url = http://www.univision.com/content/content.jhtml;jsessionid=IWM22WCRXJJGSCWIABTCFFIKZAABUIWC?cid=1632218 | format = | doi = | accessdate = 18 February 2010|language=es}} Shortly after breaking up with Peralta, Moussier began dating a young man named Juan, but they ended their relationship in 2009.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier está ¡harta! | publisher = Univision | date = 25 September 2009 | url = http://www.univision.com/content/content.jhtml;jsessionid=PSFWIAUWHQEXOCWIABTCFFIKZAABUIWC?cid=2097810 | format = | doi = | accessdate = 18 February 2010|language=es}}
In April 2009, Moussier became involved in a public and lengthy war of words with fellow actress Sherlyn, who brought a lawsuit against Moussier's former partner Peralta, accusing him of defrauding her of MXN$2 million while they were dating.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier pide clemencia a Sherlyn | publisher = People en Español | date = 14 April 2009 | url = http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1891260,00.html|language=es}} Moussier paid Peralta's debt herself and then publicly denounced Sherlyn when the younger actress did not immediately drop the charges against Peralta.{{cite web | last = Contreras | first = Claudia | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier llega a arreglo con Sherlyn | publisher = El Universial | date = 30 April 2009 | url = http://www.eluniversal.com.mx/notas/594732.html|language=es}} Peralta was eventually released from prison on May 14,{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier rechaza hablar sobre situación legal de su ex | publisher = El Universial | date = 19 May 2009 | url = http://www.eluniversal.com.mx/notas/598967.html|language=es}} but Moussier later accused Sherlyn of violating the non-aggression pact that was included in the settlement of the lawsuit and threatened to reveal information that would ruin Sherlyn's career.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier amenaza a Sherlyn: "A ver de a cómo nos toca" | publisher = People en Español | date = 4 June 2009 | url = http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1902909,00.html|language=es}} The two actresses eventually came to an understanding following a telephone call and subsequently called a truce.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier y Sherlyn hacen las paces | publisher = People en Español | date = 12 June 2009 | url = http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1904376,00.html|language=es}}
In late 2009, Moussier developed Guillain–Barré syndrome and was forced to alter her shooting schedule on Mi pecado in order to promote her recovery.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier habla de su salud | publisher = Televisa | date = 21 October 2009 | url = http://www2.esmas.com/entretenimiento/programastv/nxclusiva/noticias/107729/sabine-moussier-habla-salud|language=es}} According to Juan Osorio, Moussier's illness traveled from her spinal cord to her brain, affecting her ability to remember her lines and causing her such pain that doctors were forced to put her under sedation. Additionally, he claimed that Moussier might be left paralyzed as a result of the illness.{{cite web| last =| first =| author-link =| title =Se complica salud de Sabine Moussier| work =People en Español| date =20 November 2009| url =http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1941251,00.html| language =es| url-status=dead| archiveurl =https://web.archive.org/web/20091224021939/http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1941251,00.html| archivedate =24 December 2009}} As a result of her worsening health, Moussier was forced to leave the cast of Mi pecado shortly before the completion of filming.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Confirmado Sabine sale "Mi Pecado" | publisher = Televisa | date = 2 November 2009 | url = http://www2.esmas.com/entretenimiento/programastv/nxclusiva/noticias/111201/confirmado-sabine-sale-mi-pecado|language=es}} Moussier announced in late November 2009 that her health was improving and that she would not be left paralyzed, although she stressed that Guillain–Barré "is an illness that takes months [from which to recover]".{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier: "No me estoy muriendo" | work = People en Español | date = 23 November 2009 | url = http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1942559,00.html|language=es}} Although she had recovered from Guillain–Barré by March 2010, her health has been further complicated by a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome.{{cite web | last = | first = | author-link = | title = Sabine Moussier sobre su enfermedad: "Desde hace cinco meses no me levanto"| work = People en Español | date = 18 March 2010 | url = http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/articles/0,22490,1973223,00.html|language=es}}
