In 1972, she married the Italian director and producer Luciano Ercoli, starring in many of his productions up until the early-1980s, and was familiar with her erotically themed roles in giallo and sex comedies.

She began her career as a film actress in Italy alongside Totò in the Lawrence of Arabia parody Toto of Arabia (1965),[2][3] a Spanish-Italian co-production, in which she played Doris, a beautiful spy in the service of the British SIS, who charms the Sheik of Kuwait El Ali el Buzur (Fernando Sancho) and allows Totò to use her to drive the one hundred wives of the Sheik jealous.

Navarro also appeared in the sequel The Return of Ringo,[4] and supporting roles in The Big Gundown (1966),[5][6][7] Long Days of Vengeance (1967), Light the Fuse... Sartana Is Coming (1970)[8] and Adiós, Sabata (1971).

She subsequently moved to Italy with Ercoli where she spent the rest of her career, starring in many of her husband's projects, which ended veering towards Italian erotica and "giallo" cinema.

In 1983, Navarro attempted to return to Spanish cinema with films like Gianfranco Angelucci's drama Honey with Fernando Rey,[11] but with less than expected success.
